Default Front end feels Light at Speed

I have been drivin my MY00 classic for a while now and the steering seems to become very light once you get above 60mph. I thought this was normal untill my mate drove mine and instantly said this doesnt feel right! then another lad i know who has an impreza he went out in it and he said theres something wrong with it. I got it over a pit and had a look underneath and everything is all in place nothing is broken or missing. Has anybody else experienced this? Anybody know what it could be? Thanks Gav

Maybe a bit of play in the steering rack or a bit of slack on the PAS belt (people only think of the cambelt as being replaceable, they should all be done together )
