The confirmation work for the new CX-5 (KF series-300001 ~), for which some parts were unconfirmed, has been completed.As a result, existing products can be installed except for some gasoline 2.5L turbo cars.I will tell you the details.

<The key to running, suspension>

In the new model, there are minor changes in the damper damping force and spring constant, and each part has been brushed up.However, for users who want a sporty ride, the feeling of high waist and glaring roll cannot be wiped out.

① Low down spring・ ・ ・ Installation OK

Compared to the conventional car, the spring is set slightly stiffer in the new model, and in some grades, the low down spring may have a slightly lower spring constant.However, as a result of the test, the taste of the roll, the vehicle height, and the connection at the time of bump touch are also good.Achieves a crisp and stable ride even with an SUV without an unpleasant push-up feeling.In addition, the gasoline turbo has almost the same weight as a diesel vehicle, so it has the same part number as that for diesel vehicles.

② Street Sports Suspension Kit & Sports Damper・ ・ ・ Installation OK

Since there is no change in the basic design and vehicle weight from the conventional type, it can be installed as it is.Control the roll speed from the moment the damper starts moving (very low speed range) such as winding.It is a specification that pursues the best street "ride".

* The genuine rear upper mount needs to be replaced separately.Please be careful.

③ Body reinforcement・ ・ ・ Installation OK

A tower brace set and a member brace set, which are full-scale reinforcement parts that solidify the key points of the body on the surface and ensure a crisp body rigidity.Gasoline turbo cars can also be installed without interference with auxiliary equipment and mufflers.

④ Intake and exhaust・ ・ ・ Diesel & Gasoline NA can be installed

The following three points will be newly developed for gasoline turbo cars.

■ Newly designed with a layout specifically for sports mufflers . It is necessary to undergo and pass acceleration noise tests to meet safety standards.

■The intake suction kit hose itself has a new shape, so it will be redesigned.

■ Ram Air Intake System: The basic shape is the same as that of diesel vehicles, but because the air-fuel ratio (the ratio of air to fuel) is different, a special setting is applied.

We are planning to release it sequentially from next year.Please stay tuned!

⑤ Brakes & utility parts, etc ... Most parts can be installed!
