Is the car lowered at all? Are the control arms using poly bushings or rubber? What kind of tires are you running on the care when the wheel hop occurs? How much power does the car make? Normally a good set of lower control arms and lower control arm relocation brackets do the trick but it all depends on the set up of the car.

the car is not lowered and i think the lower control arms are bmr with poly bushing
i donot have relocation brackets does the make a big difference
im running sumitumo tires they are 5-6 years old not that sticky
