so bottom line is the stiffer springs didn't allow it to squat as much. I have not had wheel hop issues since I did the stiffer springs.

I have a 83zx with a ls1 in it with 400whp. I was having the same problem with the wheel hop which was causing me to snap stub axles. a guy explained to me as the car squats it toes in causing it to lose traction, as the suspension unloads it gets grip again causing it to squat and repeat the vicious cycle. I also feel it was because I was bottoming out the struts which cause the rear to bounce back up...I have poly bushings, quife rear diff, whithead performance 300m stub axles (which took 8 months to get), with 300zxt half shafts and I have had custom springs made a couple times and now im up to 420lb springs. the car still rides pretty good and it only squats a lil bit. it runs consistent 11.9@116mph with 1.75 60FT times. the car hooks so good with 235 wide tires. I hope this helps. I am curious exactly what you did to move the rear subframe back. I have been wanting to do that for years.

i just tried that exact pan. it didnt work.it makes the motor sit too high,and the bottom of the pan sits lower than the bottom of the car. the front of the pan needs to be thinner and there is plenty room for a longer sump. unfortunatly the one that worked great was a canton 13-270a($450 bucks). expensive but it worked awsome. glad to see im not the only one atempting this swap. mine will be done by may. ill post pics when i figure out how too.

im putting a ls6 in my 280zx with a t56 trans. i am wondering if i can use the stock master cylinder for the t56? if not, what are the other options? i know people have used tilton masters i just dont know what one exactly. thank you for any help i can get
