Default suspension

hey everyone... next thing im doin is suspension... I wanna know what can help from also keeping my front end on the ground when taking off.... i have crazy wheel hop and it also pulls crazy hard left and right... I def wanna go with the stage 3 suspension, but what else can help me from having a good start off the line...will motor monts help? if not i dont wanna get em' because heard they make your car shake (def not something i want) and i dont think sway bars would help, that mostly for turning... any ideas??? and if i do decide to get motor mounts and sway atrs which ones would be the best with the stage 3 suspension????

coil overs, strut tower brace, and sway bars will help out with anything dealing with your wheels, as for the motormounts it would help to post something on here to see what's workin for everyone.

yea but sway bars and srut bars are mostly for turning, they dnt really help wheel hop... would motor mounts help, and which ones are good out there? and do they make any type of traction bars/kits or anything like that for our cars????

Motor mounts will help your wheel hop. There is gonna be more vibration. I have solids on my 98, I hook up a lot better, but there is a vibration at idle, once I am moving, I don't notice it.

Motor mount inserts may be a good compromise. I would suggest some prothanes (like 30$ shipped) in race durometer. I have these, and while they do help a lot with wheel hop (not as much as a full set of mounts but much better than stock). The vibration isn't that bad, actually, I think it idles more smoothly. It does sound different when driving, a little noisier in the car, but isn't intolerable, at all. You will hear your compressor turn on/off, but that is the biggest difference. Mostly, I thought the car felt more connected with the inserts in.
