Default How to get rid of wheel hop??

I was driving my friends Civic. He has a Clutch Masters Stage 3, and during hard shifts he has a lot of wheel hop. I am about to swap in a GSR engine into my LS and I'm thinking of getting the same clutch. I am thinking I will probably end up with the same problem.

What do I have to do to try to eliminate the Wheel Hop???

You can buy the Z10 crossmember unit. I have heard that full polyurethane motor mounts also help reduce wheel hop as wellas replacing the front suspension bushings with polyurethan pieces.

Yes, the Z10 radius arms and poly motor mounts will help a great deal. That CM Stage 3 is a good clutch, it needs a good support system to go with it.

Motor mount inserts and aftermarket shocks will help hella. Prothane is way better than Energy!!!!
