funny that you mention the lca.. since i got my nitrous installed i have had my first experience with wheel hop.. i'd heard about it.. but my car was making no power so it wasn't an issue.. but yea.. just took off the other day and sprayed and thought i was going to kill my whole car rofl.. the cd player kit fell out of dash, and whole car just jarred soooo hard.. i should probly do something about that..

Wheel hop is a quick way to kill your tranny. I would be careful until i got my wheel hop fixed if i were you...There are several ways not just lca's but i did more than one. LCA's with solid filled motor mounts..It works really well and makes the car feel like a bit of a racecar. a very slow racecar

And yes the car does handle pretty well if i must say so myself but i rarely push it

c0alition · 08-16-2008, 01:54 AM

yea.. i only got bad hop once, and won't be spraying anymore till i get the car finished.. the bottle is empty now anyway

YOSLVR442 · 08-16-2008, 12:11 PM

have you ever brought your cougar to a road course?? im sure it would do pretty well.

c0alition · 08-16-2008, 12:36 PM

dane, you say solid filled motor mounts.. I believe I read a post on someone doing that themselves.. you ever mess with it? or did you just buy them..?

Danef150 · 08-16-2008, 01:29 PM

I havent made it to any road courses i just know what it does on the backroads out here im pretty conservative with how i drive anyways but i have very good confidence going through most turns on my roads...at 70 rain or shine...But yea it would be fun to bring out to some tracks...I just need to get a job first then i can move on to bigger things

Yea i bought them done allready the reason i did wasnt because i couldnt do it it was because Pole120 had a jig set up and he burnt all the old rubber material out of them befor then filling them all the way up with Urithane...But i dont think he doest it for the 2.0's...then again if you have a mtx it might be the same. because we have the same transmission. Anyways from what i understand its stupid easy just support the motor remove the mounts put some duck tape on one side and fill from the other.

c0alition · 08-16-2008, 09:42 PM

hmm.. i know the mount on the passenger side is busted filling them just replaces the rubber i guess?

YOSLVR442 · 08-16-2008, 10:17 PM

yeah, you can also just fill the stock mount with urethane. i actually filled mine with urethane and firberglass resin. they work well.
