Default 04 Mazda 6 pulling right!! GRR #@$@#$

Hello I just purchased an 04 Mazda 6 2.3l with 203000 kms. Overall I am happy with the car,comfort,power and style. However what's giving me a red rump is the annoying right hand side pull. I purchased new tires and had an alignment done.The car still pulled so I brought it back to the garage,they rotated the tires and said everything seemed tight but unfortunately it still pulled and not just a gradual pull it pretty much hauls me to the shoulder the second I let go of the steering wheel . I brought it back to the garage for the 3rd time and alignment showed to be off so they corrected the problem and the actually worked better,well for about 40kms then it started pulling again. Funny thing is the pulling is more prominent at higher speeds 110-120 kph . The garage also checked the calipers and said they weren't sticking

Any other suggestions would be appreciated. The only other thing that goes through my mind is the strut brace that the previous owner installed,could that cause the car to pull.

Thanks in advance!

you know I have the same problem with my mazda truck...problem only existed after my tires were rotated and rebalanced. prior to that, it drove straight.....after-- pulls to the right as speeds increases........perhaps, the tire not balanced or the fool beat the cam with a hammer to offset alignment.....good luck on finding the problem.
