Just be careful though, the bushes might not cost much to purchase say $200-300 but it will cost you that much again if not more to install if you replace your control arm, end link bushes etc etc

I say go for it man, my accord is so much better to drive after i have had nolathane bushes installed :thumbsup:

What does that kit come with - does it replace all the bushes or just some?

i doubt super cheap sell them. check your nearest reputable suspension joint.
prob wan professional install. harder than installing shocks as it requires more disassembly of parts

By memory supercheap dont stock the bushes, but they can order them in for you.

Dom EK yes the energy suspension hyperflex master kit comes with everything. with the civic kits they replace just about every bush in the front and the rear (spring mount bushes, control arms, end links, sway bars etc) I think the only thing it doesnt come with is motor mount inserts (which can be had for around $15-20 USD)

Have a look on www.energysuspension.com and search your application and you should be able to find what is included in the master kit for your civic.

Another popular bushing kit is the prothane kit www.prothanesuspension.com (I have a rear master kit on order for my accord) that are made out of nolathane, whereas the energy suspension kits are polyurethane.

Kenshin, no a new suspension setup with springs shocks wont replace all of your bushes, and dont kid yourself thinking its an easy DIY job.

You need to press some bushes in/out, which i doubt most ppl will be able to do at home, its a job for the pros in my opinion....

Supercheap stock most of the urothane bushes for holden and falcons. They will order them in for you, it still is cheaper than the other places as i found out most of the manufacturers get it made from the same place in QLD. they actually get nolathane brand. I rem the guy are All springs' told me there are only really 2 brands and alot of places only stock them. Also i know Whiteline sells them also but are slightly dearer.

I replaced my whole car (previous ride) and i tell you it was the best investment as it stopped all the shakes and improved handling. You don't get new bushes with shocks.
It is slightly rougher but i don't think you will notice it much.

Smoknhothonda, I'm liking the idea of total kit - just curious though, where did you get this kit and how much was it? Also, if this kit comes with everything you mentioned, why are you getting a rear master kit from prothane suspension?

The reason why I have a prothane 'rear kit' on order is the Energy suspension kit that i had installed in my model accord only come with the bushes for the front end (dont ask me why!!!) whereas the energy suspension kit for the civic comes with rear bushes also.....

I purchased my bushes from www.competitionwarehouse.com they are great guys to deal with. Just send carlos an email, and he should help u out with prices with P&H included.

If you want the prothane bushes go to www.prostreetonline.com

you get them in sets i.e front swaybar bushes. They can order them all for you that's not a problem either. I do remember that if you get a premade kit it is usually more expensive than getting all the components that make up the kit. Anyway have a word with them i'm sure they can get you the whole kits also.

Just a tip ring around you will find the brands are the same but the price diff. for a set can be as much as $20 per set. I know i rang Whiteline and one part was cheaper than supercheap and supercheap had another part that was cheaper? Go figure, both were using the same brand. So i ordered different parts from both of them.
