Who else get bad wheel hop?

Triggy · 08-09-2018, 10:38 PM

My 2019 Z sport with 3000 miles has BAD wheel hop and i can't be the only one to have it. guessing it's caused but cheap bushings and soft springs?

Who has had this issue and what have you done to help solve the problem? Pretty dissapointed TBH, didn't expect it to be this bad coming from a 40k sports car...
whats the point of having RWD and 330hp when you can't even pop the clutch at 3000RPM.

Get tires better suited for drag racing. Also maybe another car. Differential bushings may help a little.

Couple things you can do to improve/decrease it.
1) Whiteline bushings or equivalent.
2) Z1 bushing collar inserts.
3) Poly trans/engine mounts.

I did solid subframe bushings, whiteline diff bushings, voodoo13 traction and z1 camber arms out back and it got ALOT better, started using M&H radials and it improved even more. SPL rear upper arm bearings, true type coilover and Z1 or other toe arm so everything is solid out back with a 0 camber alignment and a decent 60ft should be in my future

If you don't want wheel hop buy something with a solid rear axle. It's a sports car as you said not a drag car, you'll have to do certain things to get it to go down the strip with any decent result.

I'm assuming your drag racing, and have you tried lowering your rear tire preasures?

Have you lost any weights? Is your diff bushing leaking silicone? Also soft suspension?
