Default Hard left turn... car shuts off...?

I just picked up a hatch from Jamie, and when I make a hard left theres some sort of electrical short or something, cause the car will sputter and if I push the clutch in it shuts off... I'm thinking theres something swinging over and hitting somewhere which is causing it to short out and stop sparking. It only happens when I make a hard left, If I make a slow left nothing happens, does anyone know what could be grounding out to cause this to happen? thanks in advance,

PS: The Ls/vtec is back on the road in a matter of 23 hours and is still running, but now has ARP rod nuts, it enjoys 8500 rpms now.. -Ben

just make real hard right turns and use the E brake then you want have to make left turns any more.

Problem solved.

I figured it out, its the main relay, it was just hanging down, it seems that if it moves around it shorts out for some reason.. I'm not sure but the problems solved. thanks anyways, I tried the E braking it and it didn't work out too well.. -Ben
