Wheel hop w/ stock suspension?
So, I'm not the type to do burnouts or anything like that, but I do like the occasional quick start. Not side stepping the clutch or anything, but not so gentle either. From a stand still, it feels like the rear wheels hop. Is that normal? Also, on the 1-2 shift(quick hard shift) I get the same thing. Loud kind of clunk sound. Now maybe this is normal because there is no LSD, or maybe just because it isn't a race car...but it seems like it should be smoother. My 04 M3 that I just traded in, while built for a different purpose with different parts, just sucked it up and stayed nice and smooth.
Thoughts? Thanks John |

Even porches get wheel hop ... you can fix/improve this situation by stiffening the engine/transmission mounts. Unfortunately this makes the cabin vibrate more as there is no dampening between the components.
