Hi guys

A few of my friends know that i have been testing the Kido racing range of products that are Made in Taiwan, particularly their brake kits, and coilover suspension packages with surprising results.

They really stand up to some serious abuse, and i have no qualms in using them in my future vehicle builds. I have tested them on my R34 GTR and are currently going through installation on the Supra which i have built over the last two years.

The deal with the coilovers is $1100 per set including delivery to your door, and they come with custom spring settings, so if you require a heavier or lighter spring than Kido provides please let me know when you place the order.

The reason i use this company is they have an association with manufacturing some of the Greddy products, and i was willing to give them a go.

$1100 including shipping with choice of spring rates, 10 people needed. Group buy will go for three months or stop earlier if the numbers are reached.

Here is some information on whats available and some photos.

● Mono-tube shock design

● 40 levels of dampening adjustability can be set to any preference

● 44mm linear characteristic internal piston

● Italian IP F.A 5W made very high viscosity index guarantees efficient shock-absorbing action at any ambient temperature

● Lower bracket height adjustability prevents the needs to adjust the spring perch offering the max shock-absorbing travel

● SAE9254 cold-bent spring is designed to optimize the balance between performance and comfort

You might want to ready the group buy sticky here

You need to supply a start and end date for your group buy as per the rules.

Letting you know, so your thread doesn't get locked or deleted.

before handing your money over, i hope everyone knows this is the same company making the fake bride seats that are going around, the fake takata harnesses, the fake sard regulators and many other fake seats.

why support a bunch of theives, selling replica items for almost the same price.

Because making people pay $1000's for something that would cost nowhere near as much to make isn't thieving?

IDC what you say about R&D they still factor in a major profit margin.

Before we get on the bagging train, please realise that these coilovers are no different, than maybe , G4, D2 and the like. They are pretty much all made in Taiwan and is no way reflected on their quality.

However if you want to feel like research and development is the way to go then go ahead and buy any of the other brand names. I have used the product and all i can say is i havent had any problems.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
