bmr cb005 and links still hopping

[BMR Tech]

And not to toot my horn, but my wheel hop testing is pretty in depth and serious. I would say it is way above and beyond what others do.

Here is just some examples of my testing. Street tires....drag radials...various launch settings....track....street.....etc etc etc.














Looking at those, you will see the RPM and the wheel speed.

The purple line will show wheel hop.

Great explanation Kelly!

Are the subframe braces your referring to the same as the Steeda IRS braces?

Yes, for now I am using the stock arms with the rest of the BMR CB005 and the Steeda braces.

I have no wheel hop on the stock GT-PP P-zeros at the strip or on street.

mods:
Eibach Prokit springs

IRS upgrades:
- DSS 800hp Axles
- Steeda Vertical Links
- Steeda Diff Bushing inserts (I use the Black ones)
- BMR BK048 Delrin Cradle bushings (new version, no metal sleeves)
- BMR TR005 Toe-Links

::: CONS :::
- I have some weird mystery pop noise when low speed turning (axles???)
- I have diff NVH, I fix this driving windows down
- I have TERRIBLE rear PP bounce on some road surfaces (hope for koni adjustables soon)

If you have not isolated this source yet, I am going to go ahead and make an educated guess that it is the Torsen making those noises.

VERY common.

Wish I could just bring the car to Kelly to figure that damn noise out

My PP makes the same clicking sound when doing low speed turns, called and talked to kelly. We both just agreed it was the sound of my Torsen clicking/engaging. I haven't worried about it

RLCA Front Bushing
[/COLOR][/B]-This piece.....this piece shows an EXTREME amount of deflection under load and during wheel hop conditions. I would say that this is actually one of the more important pieces to upgrade.

Kelly, is this piece part of the TCA45 kit?

That's my sound too!

I tested my car yesterday and I have zero wheel hop. I have TR005, TCA045 and CB005. I launched my car at different rpms and did a few burn outs. I'm also running 305s on the rear. This weekend I'll be installing viking warriors and a few more parts.

Any NVH complaints? That's about what I was thinking of doing, just with the Steeda Bushing Support System instead of the CB005 since I have a convertible.

No NVH complaints at all.

I'm installing BK054, CJR001, Viking Warriors and a G-Trac K-Member this weekend.

You can use our CB005 on a convertible. You just discard the Fore Braces.

Even in that form, without the Fore braces...it still outperforms other options on the market.
