Wheel hop help

How do u fix wheel hop? I installed solid diff bushings and polly control arm bushings. It helped a little but still getting ridiculous wheel hop off the line. Anyone have any ideas?

I think you have to change the ride hight.. It shouldn't be as worst as a 350Z.....

Subframe bushings from Whitline. Even with Solid diff bushings, there is still some play within the OEM rubber subframe bushings. Jack up your car in different points on the rear subrame. There will be some movement.

Also take at look at the rest of the bushings in the rear and struts.

Struts are new and the rest of the bushings look good. I cant get the car under 9.05 it just wont come off the line hard enough. Only thing I can think of that would be hurting me real bad is the short side wall on my tires. So I'm going to try a set of drag radials this weekend and spray the hell out of it.

@ Jairen I'm watching your race videos I see you ease off the line. Ive been side stepping the clutch at anywhere between 3000 and 3800. Is easing off the line the best way to take off in these cars? I'm use to domestic cars with live axles.
