Let's hope that I express this in the spirit that it's intended...I love the Japanese People...find them just great...that being said, the fact that appearances, as you note, are so important to the Japanese actually should make your wearing the kilt quite acceptable...assuming that you observe all of the formalities of kilt wearing. I'm sure that any deviation from good kilted form will be noticed...not to generalize but it seems very "Japanese" to have a very good working knowledge of the ins and outs of all of the world's cultures and i wouldn't be suprised if you ran into folks who would know whether or not your gear was correct or not. In fact, I would think that wearing the kilt would be considered very right on and that you will get a lot of very positive feedback....smile and bow, my man, smile and bow.
...and don't forget your business cards!
...and be prepared to be photographed a lot...you'll probably have folks wanting to get into the shot with you so that they can show their friends that they met the kilted guy.
...and by all means try to go to Kyoto and Nara!
Best
