    Default Wheel hippidy Hop Problems ! ! ! !

    well I've read on here before about someone who had wheel hop problems and well...

    Now I'm in the same boat. I had just insatlled a nwe clutch and couldn't really stress it, but now that it is broke in my launchs have very bad wheel hop all the way through third. I know and Lsd will help with this, but I've read somewhere before that my tires might be to small 215/40/zr17, and also what suspension mods will help with this???

    any help would be most appreciated.

    specv's have disgusting wheel hop, but new motor mounts, or inserts work miracles. it might help, might not, but i just thought i'd throw the idea out.

    solid motor mounts will help, and if preludes have bobble struts, upgrade it also.

    Switch to Urethane Solid Motor mounts. Hasport or AVID will work. Nopi carries AVID so try those.

    Traction bars are a plus, although expensive and im not sure they make them for your year model. Also stiffer suspension , better stuts can help. id do the motor mounts first
