Tires? You need more grip. Or maybe your struts/shocks?

I would agree with drift and say it is your tires are they radial or bias-ply if they are bias-ply they will will sway from side to side, definetly check your tires.

Re: going 80mph car moves to sides easily

I have a 85 300z and whenever I put it to the floor and it down shifts the car starts jockying all over the road. I know I do need front struts so like everyone was saying, check your springs and shocks.
But how you put your question when your going fast does it pull to one side or does is sway back and forth. If its pulling to one side you might wana set it up on an alignment rack and see if your frontend is outa alignment.

If it gets squirly at 80mph its most likly your tires, I would say HICAS but you seem to already have disabled that. check to see if you have uneven tire wear on the insides and out. Do an alignment first to make sure you have corrected steering problems. If your tires are still good and you have corrected alignment but the problem still persists. Try either changing the tires to a different grade or deflating the tires just alittle. Or you can always go through the racer ideal and just buy lowered suspension products and wing.
