I have a 98 prelude and when i dump the clutch and also when i chirp 2nd it wheel hops i can never get the tires to light up on dry pavement how do i stop this from happening and dose this happen to all of u????

 

Sometimes it does and sometimes it just spins. Depends on the road and how high you launch it.

 

It's called soft engine mounts and soft radius rod bushings. Get better mounts and a traction bar setup.

 

and a limited slip differential will help too i think. (power to both wheelZ! woohoo!)

 

when i went from energy inserts to inovative 85 monts i could tell a big difference. Still happens every once in a while, but after i get a traction bar it wont happen any more. Wheel hop also has to do with the quality of the tire and how wide the side wall is.

 

i thought it was becouse of the tires becouse when i bought the car it had some shitty tires wrong size and all 205/55/16 i just got some bridgestone g forces 205/50/16 and it still happens but i think im going to try them engine mounts and c what happens

 

Apperently, its due to a hand ful of factors, ranging from Motor Mounts, Springs, Wheels. Pretty much stiffen up your suspension and it will stop.

IDK 100 percent, Im yet to follow through with this issue. I have it as well and its annoying. But I read in other threads before its do to a flimsy suspension.

 

learn how do drive as well.....

i get 0 wheel hop...

 

Hey Im not the guy that wheel hopped his car 60 times and destroied his motor mounts.This is where I read the thread

BTW I dont do wheel hop, Ive done it once when I first installed my H22. Testing it out, I threw on the Ebrake and Dropped the clutch at 5k rpms. Bad ending.

 

I always thought it was because your shafts were angaled...

They may be angled, but the ends are mounted to fixed points on the tranny and knuckles.

 

torque damper

 

Inserts got rid of it for me......in my DD Prelude, I still get hop when I launch sloppy!
