3m "window weld" 100% polyurethane caulk is what I have heard of being used. Basically turns your motor mounts into poly mounts with a rubber center.

Prothane motor mounts and Groundcontrols/AGX's cured my wheel-hop. A LSD will help a lot too.

I fixed my wheel hop permanently. I sold my '97 GST and got and 99 GSX. I used prothanes and had a Phantom Grip and still ended up going thru 4 tranny's due to the violent wheel hop. I think Brian (Slowwhite) went thru even more tranny's than I did. The GST was a great hiway car but sucked for track racing.
