Rear suspension softer than before and bad ride quality??

Alright, this has been going on for a little while but has gotten pretty bad lately. I have all upgraded suspension on my car and it is very stiff. But now the rear suspension feels much softer. When I push down on the front, the car barely moves, but the rear moves at least 5times as much.

It started to happen right after breakin of my new clutch 2500 miles ago. I started to get wheel hop when I launched and hit second, instead of it just spinning like it always used to. What part is making my car ride like crap over little bumps and stuff.

Could it be my rear differential bushings or my pillowball mounts? My car will be down for a few weeks over christmas, when I install my single turbo and stuff. So that would be a good time to fix this problem too.

Thanks

Check your pillows and diff bushings again. Mine do the same thing after a couple thousand miles every time. Also quit picking up fat chicks!

Yea I will check both those on friday when I start my single install.

Haha, fat chicks couldn't fit in my seats. One of my friends who is a girl weighs like 115 and gets stuck in the seats.
