Click "Settings" at the very top of the page. Then to the left click the "General Setting" page. On this page under "Messaging & Notification" you'll find the "Default Thread Subscription Mode" dropdown menu. Select "Instantly, using email." This will email you when ever someone posts in a thread that you've subscribed to.
A little below on the same page is the "Private Messaging" menu. Make sure the email notification option is ticked to receive.

Sounds like your brakes on your passenger front wheel wernt installed properly i had the same problem where the pistons were not compressed enough and the pistons would be slightly extended out more so then the other side so it would pull to the right

i changed the front brakes to a 6-piston brembo setup, cts-v2. as you said, i suspected the stock gt caliper had a stuck piston, but changing brake setups did not change the steering pull. at the moment, i took it to the dealership a week ago, they performed a 4-wheel alignment, and said they had to order in an alignment pin or bolt. i haven't seen the paperwork yet, so i dont know exactly what it is. the part has arrived, i just need to get it installed.
i'll update if this fixes the problem.

Whoa!!! i've learned SO much about these cars in 2 years!!!!!
cant believe this has +1000 views!
UPDATE on the steering pull problem... it was worn out front strut mounts!
also, the pull to the right was the worst after making a hard right turn...
..and after making a hard left u-turn, it would almost pull straight or slightly left!
MUCH MUCH thanks and appreciation to the guys on this forum that know their stuff!! and are so willing to help newbs learn!
