rear end hops help

[s14hayame]

i have a s14 w/sr i am having some proplems keeping the rear end from hopping when i spin it up. i have kyb gr2 shocks/strut and rs-r springs but the spring are pretty old maybe thats the problem? please give me some suggestion to correct this problem

hmm... subframe spacers?

[MakotoS13]

definately subframe spacers. drive a car with new bushings all around and you'll feel a difference.

going to give that a shot hope that will solve the problem. thanks
by the way which company is recommanded?

[aznpoopy]

i think there's a GB still ongoing for subframe spacers from powertrix or something like that. its 60 bucks or so for the whole set? anyway, just check gb section.

When mine did that i replaced the shocks in the rear end and problem solved... maybe it was because your RSR springs are too low for your KYB shock and have blown them? or like everyone else said...subframe spacers...

Even with subframe spacers and gr2's I still had wheel hop. It went away went I got some coilovers though.

How old/new are your shocks? blown shocks will give you lots of wheel hop.
Then again, I still get some wheel hop with subframe spacers and 6k springs on rear coilovers... I've learned to live with it, though. I'm not sure there's too much you can do beyond replacing all bushings with spherical or otherwise solid units.
Good luck!

id say your shocks are blown

Based on recent experience, I'd say its the subframe bushings. I installed SPL spacers yesterday and the rear wheel hop is about 99% gone.
