New to forum! Need help!
Hi everyone! I am new to the forum. I have had my 370z for almost 8 months now and have done alot to it. But the most recent mod I put on was coilovers. The rear is almost mlre slammed than the front. Got it aligned and all the good stuff. But i have been experiencing “ wheel hop” i only expierence this when i am taking a corner decently slow while applying gas, and also whenever i do a pull. It started to happen right after i put on the coils. If anyone has any suggestions or simply knows the answer. After i got it aligned it helped a little bit with thw wheel hop but not fully cured. There are alot more people who are alot lower than i am and do not have this issue. Also i have yet to fully fine tune the suspension.LMK. Also if you were wondering what other mods i have
-weds LXZ CUSTOM BLACK METALLIC PAINT. 19x10 3 in lip 19x12 4.5 in lip - parts by max coilovers - straight pipe catback -likewise shift knob - crown royal shift boot - red interior lighting - spc rear camber kit |

Welcome. And it might be better to ask your technical question in a different section.
Might get more people to see it who can answer you |

Read this:
https://nasaspeed.news/tech/suspensi...cts-and-cures/ In summary, you should replace your shitty factory rubber bearings with metal spherical ones Solution here: Throw away your SPC crap Visit SPL Parts (Nissan - 09+ 370Z (Z34) - SPLParts) Get: 1) Rear Traction Arms (because PBM coilovers are true-type) 2) Rear Toe Arms 3) Eccentric lock out kit 4) Rear camber arm 5) Front upper control arms (might as well, while you're at it) Take parts and car to your local performance suspension/alignment. Install parts. Get new alignment. Dial down the camber in back to the minimum needed for wheel clearance Profit (As an aside, if the car is high mileage, you should inspect the bushings in the rear suspension to see if anything is worn out, and replace anything you see thats f'd up)

Along with Zero's suggestions. It important to properly corner balance the car. Adjustable endlinks is relatively important as well to reduce sway bar preload out of the question of potential handling problems.

Check your Rear differential bushing. Mine was busted with less than 20K miles. They drip black liquid down the diff cover when they bust. Check with Z1, they sell their own, which I have.
