D Dpwhitehead1 Damian Contributor : MSP 1145 Dec 23, 2011 #2 Yes. motor mounts and weapon R engine torque dampener. what it is, is almost like spinning tires when trying to get traction, but instead your wheels are "hopping"

H hornsfan10609 Certified Mazda Tech : 2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege x2 Dec 23, 2011 #4 I have all 4 solid motor mounts and don't have any wheel hop just plenty of tire spin.
D Dpwhitehead1 Damian Contributor : MSP 1145 Dec 24, 2011 #5 i have a weapon R engine torque dampener if you're interested. 160.00 shipped/paypalled.
C CitizenPro behind the scenes Contributor : 2017 Shelby GT350 Dec 24, 2011 #6 Urethane motor mounts is all you really need. Lowering the vehicle will help too, and the appearance will look better as well......2 birds, 1 stone.

T tweety2300 Member : 2001 mazda protege mp3 Dec 25, 2011 #7 another way to fix wheel hop is to replace a torn mount.
