Hi everyone,I've already got my sway bar coming, and I'm looking to see if anyone knows if motor mounts are out for our cars. Another thing is if anyone knows of any under body braces coming out soon.

Thanks,Smmehdiz

Welcome to your new home!

Nothing in the motor mount department yet. An underbody brace is highly unlikely IMO. I don't see an application like that benefiting the coupe that much. A set of Eibach's and the rear sway bar will probably satisfy your taste for handling.

so (this being my first stick), the wheel hop that has happened once or twice is my driving error? or at least me not knowing the right way to treat this car of hard take off?

There should really be no wheel hop if you shift and drive the car properly. You can accelerate the coupe to the best of its power ability and push it to a point without achieving wheel hop.

Key words here are "to a point"....anything beyond that point and you will achieve wheel hop.
