Default NISMO Rear End

Hey guys,

Can someone throw out a link to some threads on Wheel hop issues.

I tried the search and couldn't get any results, I am sure there are tons of threads about it on here.

I cannot believe the amount of wheel hop I get in this car, it is ridiculous IMO.

Just looking to see what people have done to get rid of this. I read that there is only one bolt connecting the diff to the subframe? for real?

My buddy has a CTS-V, older model with the LS6 in it, anyways we were at the strip a few weeks ago and he broke his diff due to wheel hop (guess he didn't let off the gas) anyways, after the damage, I would like to do something so I don't end up like him!

Thanks,

K

Look into SPL diff bushings! Your better off posting this in the drivetrain section.

I slowly let off the clutch at about 2k. No wheel hop. Sounds like your dumping the clutch a little too aggressive.

Yeah, I forgot to mention the track I go to is LESS then perfect. Because I usually just go on street night, there's NO track prep. They even let quads run. And I'm not talking about "race" quads either.
