I have had this problem on numerous datsuns and causes ranged from steering boxes worn, steering box flexing on the rail where it bolts on, whole rail delaminating near where the steering box bolts on, worn tie rod ends etc etc.
I do remember though whatever the cause driving quick is very difficult and this is what it is all about.
