3M Windo-Weld Fast Curing Urethane
$13 to reduce your weel hop. Not bad.
<<<<<edit>>>>
I just found some good info on this website. Also, go to the McMaster webiste and check that out too. The 80 Shore has a 1725psi tensile strength and the 94 shore has a 3120psi tensile strength. I couldn't find any info on the strengh of the 3M stuff.

Order them from from McMaster-Carr, http://www.mcmaster-carr.com McMaster-Carr is a great source for all sorts of odd hardware. Plus -they'll sell/ship over the phone to anyone with a credit card! They carry a generic "Flexane equivalent" in two hardness's:
80 Shore A Durometer - 1lb resin/hardener - p/n 8644K11 ~$19
94 Shore A Durometer - 1lb resin/hardener - p/n 8644K18 ~$19
I ordered the 80 shore and it works excellent.. there is a bit of give, but they are VERY solid.. I doubt I will have any problems with them at all. my order came the day after I ordered it off the web, the bill came the day after that.. I think I paid a total of like $22 total. then I made them myself.
HTH,

Window weld is cheaper from the parts store, like $10, it definitely helped on my car. Since you're doing a sorta low budget thing, can you somehow preload the front suspension so it sticks better to the ground?

Yeah, I read on another site that Advance Auto has it for about that. Doh!

This is what I filled my mounts with. I couldn't find the 3M stuff anywhere here.  It's fairly solid but all it did was allow me to feel more engine vibration through my steering wheel and didn't affect the hop. Next thing to do is get some Koni's but can't afford that now. Can't get GC cause my 3" exhaust already scrapes to easy and lowering the car more won't help.

Well with gc's you could set the car up with a raked stance, so more of the cars weight is on the front wheels, also if you retained the height you have now in the rear you will have fewer issues scraping.

yea i gotta agree... wheel hop has been a killer for me. nothing seems to do anything about it. motor mounts did nothing (very little). I have kumho 712s and it hops more not than ever as well as koni's and eibachs. Koni's are set to 3/4ths of a turn. Haven't tried putting a quaife in... just my experience
