Thanks for alerting all of us who have been waiting forever! Have you ordered a set for your setup? I'd like to hear feedback on how well this coilover setup bodes with our rides. I'd just never heard of the company Kido before, or maybe I have a few years back? Sucks the shipping puts the set right just below $1000. Still debating on air ride, or coilovers.

Looks like no camber adjustment, because I doubt you get pillowball mounts with camber adjustment at that price.

Damn! Talk about giving it a drop...

How do you even turn the wheel without scrapping?

you have to take out the plastic inner liner and be careful not to hit the bump stop on the full range of the turn. looks amazing though wonder what they used to lower it and if it is adjustable?

I see. I never knew.
Seems like a lot of work just to rolls with the slammed look.
But, those wheels and the stance is wicked!

I'm thinking Wes would be all over the blacked out look.

I'm Instagram buds with the guy who owns the one in white, and yes he is using the Kido coilovers. The only reason I know, is he was one of the guys I had been talking to about the setup. Basically the guy who confirmed with me that it would work before I ordered. I see a lot of the guys on here has also left comments on his Instagram asking what setup he has too. Haha...he's definitely good peeps and is cool to chat with. Ends every conversation we have with, "bro."

The pictures are from a feature coverage in a magazine Modifikasi Plus Magazine. His trunk interior setup is my favorite for sure!

OK so Went to go install the EVO X suspension today. this is a no go with the Evo X shocks.

Front cannot be used unless you ditch your sway bar because of where OEM bolts up.

Rear shock is way too long and the same with the spring.

I will not be swapping springs onto the outlander shocks, I will be scraping and saving for the kido set up

Good to know, at first glance I also thought the rear Evo X shocks/springs were too tall for the Outlander Sport as well. I'm still deciding if I want to test fit my BC Coilovers onto the Outlander Sport from my Evo X before selling them but it appears it might not fit anyways if it prevents use of the front swaybar.

I have heard they will probably fit but you will lose use of the front sway bar. Do a test fit and see.I believe the coils from a evo X or even 7,8,9 actually will fit from what I read somewhere else, only issue is the sway bar.

Nice find! KW only lists the V1 on their website for OS. Not sure how accurate CarID may be.
