Is it at all possible to replace the front and rear control arm bushings without having to remove the whole assembly from the car ? I already removed the strut assemblies from the car a few months ago when i replaced the bearings, brakes. struts, ball joints and tie rods and really do not want to take it all apart again :disappoin

Short answer, No!

Actually it is possible but you aren't going to save much time/labor. The outer rear bushings are arguably, the most difficult parts to access on an S30. Besides, since you just had them out, it should be easy. It's always easier the second time.

Not really. The fronts are press fit rubber bushings with metal sleeves. There is a good chance you'll need to have the sleeves pressed out. The same for the outter bushings in the rear.
