Hi guys - just wanted to get some advice on replacing the bushes in my S2000. The car has started to develop a squeaking sound whenever I go over steep speed humps and the rear suspension lands. I'm guessing the bushes have started to go with age and was wondering what other people have done in this scenario - change out just the rear/offending bushes or change out all of them in one go? In either scenario, what would the rough cost be? I gather the parts aren't too expensive, its mostly the labour. Just want to get a rough idea so I'm not taken for a ride.
I'm not familiar with suspension/bushes but want to avoid the scenario where I fix some parts but others start to fail soon after anyway. Any recommendations on brand/type of bushes? Another thread mentioned Honda doesn't produce some bushes anymore and I would need to go aftermarket (i.e. Powerflex, Hardrace etc).
For background, the car is still on stock suspension/springs and sitting on staggered 18's. I don't track the car although I may consider an odd track day in the future. It's 2001 AP1 with just under 100k on it.
Cheers!
