So I just found out that they are releasing a full line of Energy Suspension Bushings for the S2000. They are looking to be available in the next 2-3 weeks. They currently don't have pricing available yet for the products but here are the part numbers for the S2000.

Front - 16.3120R
Rear - 16.3121R
Tie rod - 9.13103R
Rear carrier - 16.1112R

The R stand for Red, or you can do B for Black.

Just wanted to share, cause I was excited to see this coming.

Thanks.

I heard about this a month or so ago, but have not been able to find any prices. I can't believe it took them 12 years to release this, but they already have things for the newest mustang. I would buy them, but I already purchased the powerflex usa ones. I have heard it is around 500-550 for the set. If that is correct, they will be about half the price of the powerflex usa ones.

Talked with them a few months ago when they started r&d and asked if it would be near the same price as the master kit for my prelude(under 250 for everything I needed) they told me yes it should be a very near price so I'm hyped

Does anyone have real experience with these? I ask because I have personally seen their products crack on numerous occasions...

Crack?!?!? I've had them for years on a few cars.longest on my prelude I've had them on for 6years to date roughly.no cracking.if everything is installed and lubed properly and lubed yearly or as needed(when squeaky) they last fine.and make the car ride so much better

We have had good experiences with them also like yourself on a couple cars for years. It's only recently that we have been seeing issues...
If they can keep costs low, and quality high then these should do well.

This made me laugh a little. Those 2 things don't exist in the same items. But I agree, if it is cheaper than the mugen or powerflex bushings and equal quality than they will do well. Only concern is the compliance bushing.

That's the thing with es stuff cost is low and quality is high.years of track and daily abuse from stances out to uber functional I've had nothing but high praise for them.so we shall see how they do the compliance bushings since mine are starting to shit the bed I'm praying to see these soon

Here's a cool article on them I found while searching for the non-available parts lol.
