I suppose lowering the tire pressure could in fact help with wheel hop as it will soften the sidewall up a little bit. I'll air em down a few PSI and report back.

I couldn't agree more. Why they decided to build this car on a short wheelbase platform like the Z is beyond me. I do agree that a more aggressive alignment might help... BUT going outside of OEM specs is off the table at the moment. However when thinking about it... The wheel hop on this car...

This is the optimal way to drive on E50 - as the heat generated by the constant load will often burn off any moisture in the oil caused by the phase separation properties of the E50. The guys who run ethanol but only take their car out on the weekends to a car meet or a grocery store are the...

Thanks for the insight, you could definitely be onto something. https://verklineusa.com/products/was-422 Guess that is going on the list!

38-40 Just whatever the computer yells at me to do.

Whoa! How cool is that. Gonna add that to my list! Thanks for sharing it.

Curious how often you were running E50? Ethanol can have a good number of issues associated with it. Not saying that was your issue but definitely something to think about.

here ya go

2023 manual - stock power My car has struggled with wheel hop since the day I got it. The wheel hop was so bad any amount of traction loss in 1st or 2nd gear the rear wheels would hop, violently at times. I have done the following at an attempt to get rid of it, and each mod has helped to some...

Saw that Apex was having a big sale on backordered rims - so I said fuck it and ordered a set. I was originally going to get a forged knockoff set from Alibaba but with such a big discount from Apex they basically got down to the same cost if I were to order from Alibaba. SM-10RS 18x10" ET30 in...

How do you like it?

God I love that.

You aren't wrong lol I definitely drive my car pretty aggressively :) but yeah my main focus was rear stability which I think I've dialed in, so gonna move onto other areas of the car for now.

I'll say my car is incredibly stable at high speeds with ONE exception - on throttle random rear end trajectory change; for instance flooring the car in 4th gear and merging lanes on a less than perfect freeway the car will absolutely feel like the rear end is randomly changing position. This...

Thanks! It's this guy right here...

Hell yeah man that's awesome. I think the WAS-425/426 will be a great addition to the car. Let us know how that string alignment kit works out... seems kinda wonky but hey if it works it works. I personally just got a lifetime alignment at firestone but the downside is I can't do "custom"...

Not so much what I did, but more-so what my dickhead wife did while I wasn't looking.

Got the Verkline rear traction links and toe links installed and the car aligned. Here is the before - as you can see even matching the lengths of the OEM links the car was still waaaay outta spec. I had to drive it 40 minutes to Firestone with a steering wheel that was ~35 degrees off center...

Hey past self, it's your future self - just letting you know that I installed them and it turns out the rear traction link and toe link from verkline do not generate any additional NVH. Cheers you sexy fuck.

Thnx! I'm on board but I just don't know if I could live with a flat bottom wheel. I feel like it would be weird daily driving and also make it hard to drift the car (if that's your sorta thing).
