How to determine if i'm getting wheel hop?
Posted: Thu Sep 07, 2017 2:36 pm
Under hard acceleration in 2nd gear I can feel and hear like a rotational bouncing through the accelerator pedal, is this most likely wheel hop?
I don't get it in 3rd gear.
With the supercharger belt off I don't get the issue, but also don't have the acceleration level either.
Is there anything else this could be, any way to determine for sure if it's wheel hop or check the most likely culprits of wheel hop (or anything else)?
All my suspension is stock, and old, I haven't replaced any bushes.
My car is a facelift so has the round bushes in the lower control arms, i'm wondering if just new bushes will help and if so go for anti-lift + caster ones. If these will help in general anyway then I might get some but it would be nice to know if they are knackered and the cause.

Are these the right ones for a facelift?
And these pre-facelift http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_det ... X&sq=19036
I've already recently swapped to the spare supercharger (and replaced the coupler inside) in case it was that but got the same problem.
All of my pulleys are new (alt tensioner, ps, supercharger idler and tensioners).
