Wheel hop in my GSR Hatch?
Does anybody have any idea what is causing this? I've heard that it might need a engine mount..? I appreciate it, thanks.

Crappy front wheel drive causes this.
I'd check your mounts, and then add a traction bar.

If you dont want to go full traction bar, just replacing the bushings on the stock radius rods with energy suspension bushings works pretty well too.

A traction bar is your best bet on fixing the hop.
Right now there are only a couple (probably old/worn) bushings that are keeping your lca from moving forward/aft. There is pretty much nothing keeping it stable (at least not solidly).
