Every car requires enhancements and improvements, especially if it is produced at the plant "ZAZ". Tuning ZAZ-1102 “brand” – is the completion of the famous Ukrainian of the car, which received the status of national. Low cost, ease of repair and maintenance has made it available even for people who have small wages. But sadly, what is the price – such as, so many motorists do, the tuning of “brand” his hands.

External parts

On the outer part of almost all tuning parts are made manually and on their own. With the market launch of ZAZ 1103 many domestic parts manufacturers began to produce lightweight skirts, but the aerodynamic qualities they do not. Therefore, the tuning of the “brand” his hands became more urgent.

The First thing is refining the front and rear bumpers. The material can be used plastic, fiberglass and automotive clay, which are easy to process, and after the adoption of the form of the good holding her.

The Side sill are made of plastic or sheet metal, the best for the production of aluminium remains. Of the same material can be fender flares, but here usually apply the foam, which is then puttied and painted.

On the tailgate to install the spoiler the rear window for the brand “brand”. The tuning version of the items you can purchase at the automobile markets or in specialized stores.

Alternative optics for ZAZ-1102 is not performed. But drivers found a solution: installed a cheap Chinese xenon in standard lenses – it is also the tuning. “brand”, a photo of which is presented in the article, with an exit on the market of led technology from the motorists start to get regular lights with the addition of them in the navigation lights.

The salon

Because the price of the car is around 1000-2000 dollars, for “ZAZ Tavria” the salon becomes unprofitable, so how can you invest in the material is the same money. Motorists found a way easier. Instead of regular seats are installed from the ‘Opel Vectra B”. They are ideally be on regular mounts, and their value in the car market – small.

The salon “brand” does not end with one change of seats. Pillar trims and carpet replaced with carpet, the color of which is chosen by the owner. The instrument panel is sheathed by a coloured film-self-adhesive, manufactured by Kharkov plant of polyethylene. The backlight of the instrument cluster is replaced by soldering the LEDs in the digital scheme.

Engine Tuning

For Ukrainian car “brand” engine tuning exists in two versions:

1. Complete replacement of the transmission and engine at the engine VAZ-2106, or 2108.
2. Refinement of the piston and injection.

The First option for many is quite familiar: removed old engine MeMZ-245 and installed a new one. This will need to be replaced along the way, many of the details, from the cushions of fastening to the elements of refinement of the fuel system and cooling.

The Second option is not quite as simple as it seems at first glance. The engine will have to be dismantled and subjected to the boring-hangingout under the new pistons. Usually installed instead of the normal lightweight from the manufacturer ATI (Poland) with a diameter of 75 mm.

Chamfer the intake and exhaust valves the auto “brand”, tuning is done only on a special machine, is reduced by 0.4 mm, which gives the opportunity earlier to inject the fuel into the combustion chamber. Also to add power you can set two carburetor "Solex". But it is necessary to consider that consumption will grow by 50% from the standard.

The Latest version of the add power becomes installation Kit-kit exhaust system. It is expensive, and therefore, the owners of the Ukrainian car “brand” the tuning of this system is not carried out. The only thing that remains affordable, tips on the muffler, and the range is huge.

Suspension Tuning

Tuning the suspension “brand” it is possible to carry out total or partial. So, in the first place are replaced with hubs, wheels and tires. You can then install the new springs and dampers. For fans of reduced clearance they will have to cut 2 cm

Of Course, you can buy a full set of tuning chassis, which is the Ukrainian manufacturer of «Bogdan”, but pricing – it's exorbitant price, which does not justify the investment. So often set some of the suspension parts VAZ, which makes “brand” more resistant tothe pavement.

Adaptation of the braking system

An Integral part of upgrading the chassis remains the adaptation of the braking system under the standard of the car “brand”. Tuning of brakes is a required part of the work, since this system works is not completely reliable.

To improve the efficiency of the braking system have to replace front and rear brake drums, pads, and Parking brake. On this you can not stop and install a shortened set of brake pipes Brembo, but it will have to be replaced and the brake cylinders, which will be hard to pick up on this car.

Of Course, tuning “brand” is a noble impulse, but often the money invested in this car, is not justified. So before you start to update the ZAZ-1102, is a good think.
