There is an increasing variety of cars on modern roads different brands that differ from each other. One of the most popular cars is the VAZ 2115. Its owners often do the tuning of the VAZ 2115 with their own hands in order to give their car a certain individuality and exclusivity.
Exterior tuning VAZ 2115
The new owner of the VAZ 2115 first of all wants to make changes in external appearance your car. And immediately draws attention to the bumper. It will be affected by changes. If the owner manages to find an interesting and beautiful analogue, then the appearance of the car is transformed immediately.
You should also change the body kits, this applies not only to the fifteenth model, but also to many others, for example, which needs to be done the sooner the better. With such an unrealistically stylish tuning of the VAZ 2115 with your own hands, the exhaust pipe no longer looks. It should also be replaced, for example, with a combination of 4 such pipes, as on some. To improve the appearance of the rear of the car, you should not install a spoiler. It will be out of place, and the front-wheel drive car has nothing to improve its aerodynamic properties. But the tags are perfect for decorating the rear bumper.
VAZ 2115 tuning (photo) exhaust pipe should be carried out with caution, and all because the installed near back door such a pipe can cause car passengers to be poisoned with exhaust gas.
Do-it-yourself tuning of the VAZ 2115 salon
After improving the appearance, you can go to the car interior. V this case for the VAZ 2115, many different modifications are offered. Recently, the installation of an air conditioner has been especially popular. You can do this procedure yourself. The most important thing is to have the means to buy such equipment, as well as to have a tool and a desire to make a salon tuning for your VAZ 2115.
You will have to pay for the opportunity to own a car with air conditioning, so you should immediately weigh the pros and cons. For example, you don't have to think about these details. After installing this device, the car will begin to take more current from the generator, and fuel consumption will also increase. In addition, this model does not have a special place for the air conditioner, so it will have to be adjusted in size.
For those who have decided, advice - the model of the air conditioner should be suitable for this brand of car. It is easy to find such a kit, we were convinced of this when we did it. When installing, you will have to remove the torpedo and steering wheel to find a place. In the instructions, you need to read the connection diagram in detail in order to do the job without problems. The installation looks like this: first we connect the compressor, then the freon and the electric fan.
Connect all parts to air ducts through which air will flow to them. To protect equipment from damage, fuses must be used.
Another tuning option, the most popular among car owners, is the installation of electric windows. And although many models are already equipped with them at the factory, there are still many cars with manual glass lifting. To install such a kit on a VAZ 2115, you will need a selection for specific brand auto. Please note that some kits are only suitable for front doors.
If you decide to tune the VAZ 2115 panel, then start with the backlight. Diode bulbs are perfect for this. The process of connecting them is simple and requires only attention and perseverance. And the result of such tuning will only please.
Replacing the front and rear speakers can be an interesting option for styling. Such tuning of the VAZ 2115 interior (photo) will undoubtedly improve the sound quality in your car. If you wish, you can replace the radio itself with a more powerful analogue.
We get rid of noise and create comfort in a VAZ
To maximize the comfort in the cabin, it is necessary to achieve good noise and vibration isolation. To do this, it is necessary to carry out the upholstery. This work is simple, it is easy to do it yourself, but accuracy is required when sealing the seams. But the result will exceed all expectations, and the aesthetic effect will last for more than one year.
To complete the creation of comfort in the cabin, a comfortable and functional seat should be installed. This interior element will help reduce driver fatigue while driving, increase comfort and improve the appearance of the interior. Tuning in this case can be different.
For example, you can simply do the hauling of the chairs. And you can bring the shape of the chair to the ideal, work on the elasticity of the seat. You can make a heated chair or be equipped with audible alarms. Here fantasies are where to roam.
VAZ 2115 engine tuning
Unlike the appearance of the VAZ 2115, its technical performance is not so bad when compared with its predecessor, which specifications slightly different. Therefore, tuning the engine for the VAZ 2115 will be quite simple.
Let's start with chipping the engine. The word itself means reprogramming, and in this case it will be reprogramming the engine. It is worth noting that there is a fairly wide choice for flashing a car, but not every option allows you to increase engine power.
Each owner of a VAZ 2115 chooses a suitable method for himself and the goals he wants to achieve. The most popular of the flashing options is to increase thrust at low or medium and high revs, as well as a decrease in fuel consumption, but at the expense of power characteristics.
Sports tuning allows you to create a more dynamic ride on city streets. And the economy mode allows you to save on fuel consumption during city trips, as well as to go more calmly on the highway. To complete this procedure yourself, you need to understand the intricacies of electronics.
After that, you need to think about tuning the cylinders. Indeed, without increasing their volume good results not to achieve. To increase the working volume, the cylinder walls are polished and the crankshaft is lightened, as well as the pistons are reduced in size.
The result of such manipulations is a less roughness of the cylinder walls, as a result, the gap between the wall and the piston becomes larger and the stroke becomes easier, which gives a greater number of crankshaft revolutions. And this is not the only modernization that should be done in the car engine.
You can modify the pushers, increase the camshafts, replace the springs and valves.
Let's talk about the transmission of a car. Due to the increase in the power indicators of the engine, the load on the transmission of the car will increase. Therefore, all parts of the machine must be strong and durable in order to withstand maximum loads... For example, a limited-slip differential is great for stabilizing the car when cornering. In this case, the speed can be quite high.
For tuning the brake system, a sports vacuum booster brake pedal setting is suitable. They allow you to increase the pressure on the pedal. This is a significant increase, since the effort is doubled. This is how he is. If you wish, you can do a lot today and not put off until tomorrow. The main thing is not to be afraid to experiment, then you can easily achieve the desired result.
And finally, a video about tuning the VAZ 2115:
And here are other tuning cars of the domestic auto industry.
If you want to buy a high-quality domestic car, then by all means you should take a closer look at the cars of the family VAZ Samara... These cars have a fairly wide range of models, from which any car enthusiast will choose something for himself. Today VAZ cars are comfortable cars, fully adapted to our road conditions. If you are accustomed to more comfortable models, then, if desired, options can be completed for any, even the most sophisticated taste.
Automobile VAZ-2115, aka Lada Samara, is the first updated model of the Samara-2 family. Mass production this model started back in 1997.
Vaz-2115 - restyled model Vaz 21099.Exterior exterior - front wheel drive sedan. Unlike its predecessor, Lada Samara has the following distinctive features:
New trunk lid; - new taillights, with original insert; - bumpers, painted in body color; - a spoiler appears on the trunk, with an additional brake light; - door molding; - wrap around interior parts.
The production of this model was started back in 1997, but it was mass-produced, it was launched only in 2001. After successful running-in and growing demand, since 2004 VAZ-2115 completely replaced the VAZ-21099.
Modification of the body made it possible to significantly improve the aerodynamics of the model. V new build VAZ-2115, many options were used that were not previously used. These are: updated front stamping parts, a new shape of plastic bumpers, doors are equipped with new side plates, floor sill fairings have appeared. New versions of lighting technology have been successfully applied. The interior dashboard also looks much more modern. Modern switches and control lamps appeared on it. The located on-board system clearly shows information about door closure, the condition of seat belts, oil and coolant levels.
The car looks sporty, very dynamic. Today, Samara 2115 cars are produced with two engine displacement options - 1.6V and 1.5V. Another good news, since 2001, cars have been equipped with modern engines with distributed injection.
If you value increased comfort and better technical characteristics, pay attention to the VAZ 2115 Samara "Lux" model.
In the photo, the tuning of the VAZ 2115 surprises with its versatility: what motorists can not invent to express their individuality. If you decide to tune a VAZ 2115 car yourself, you need to be patient.
The styling of the VAZ 2115 is considered quite standard. It is assumed to install body kits, forged or cast wheel rims with low profile tires ("SLIK" or "VSMPO"), as well as air intakes on the hood, roof, neon or LED backlight under the bottom.
Salon tuning
Tuning the interior of a VAZ 2115 car includes the installation of sports seats, a tuned steering wheel, and other additional devices.
But if everyone can replace the seats or put on more stylish covers, then not everyone can do the hauling of the cabin without certain skills. Therefore, we will consider this point in more detail. You should start with small parts that have a small area.
Necessary materials
First of all, you need to disassemble the interior, leaving only bare metal. It seems complicated, but everything is intuitive here.
To work, you need the following tools:
- good scissors;
- stationery knife;
- sandpaper;
- sewing machine;
- finishing material;
- a set of needles, pins;
- glue.
Usually, leatherette is used, but you should not save on it, since low-quality leatherette can bubble from the glue and tear when tightening. In the event that finances permit, you can use natural leather, suede or alcantara. The last two types require constant care and cleaning, as they are heavily greasy due to their fleecy structure. You should immediately choose the color. The red color seems attractive to many, but you need to remember that it is also a great irritant, as a result of which the car will become unsuitable for long trips. It is better to opt directly for neutral colors.
Be sure to remember about practicality. So, light colors get dirty, because this is a car where people sit in shoes, outerwear, it is a lot of dust, debris.
The upholstery of the interior is the gluing of the material. Choose the right glue. To date, the German KLEIBERIT and the Polish BOTERM GTA have proven themselves well on the market. These types of adhesives are used for all of the above materials.
We decided to carry out tuning the VAZ 2115 on our own, you need to be patient. The upholstery should start with small parts that have a small area (roof pillars, side pillars). A little experience is gained on them, which will then be useful. Patterns are not required here, which cannot be said about the console, the dashboard.
Padding of the instrument panel
The instrument panel needs measurements. To create a pattern, a material called interlining is used. Its advantage is flexibility. You will need to make a cover from it, then cut it according to the panel markings. In this case, you need to be careful not to allow cuts in the plastic, since then they can show through the finishing material.
The patterns are ready, which means they need to be transferred to leatherette. For such a lesson, you will need perseverance, accuracy, accuracy and a little experience. When applying the dimensions, you will need to precisely outline the ready-made patterns, then add 0.5-0.6 cm around the entire perimeter. This gap is required for stitching.
Next, you need something like a preview: the "pieces" fit into place, after which a preview is desirable complete picture... Many do not want to do this to get a "surprise", but then it can happen, but with the opposite effect.
Now you need to sew everything together. On back side after stitching, there will be cuffs that need to be cut off, and, moreover, shorter. This will require professional machines, but they have a huge cost and are bought only in the atelier. Then, on the front side, the seams are shaped with pliers, otherwise the panel will lack clarity, everything will be shapeless, vague.
Next stage- preparation of the site for the constriction. All parts are sanded with sandpaper 240 or 320. This is required in order to smooth out the existing irregularities to create the best adhesion of the adhesive to the panel. Particular attention is paid to inner corners where this action is required to be carried out especially carefully.
Everything is ready for the do-it-yourself instrument panel constriction. Spread a layer of glue on the material. There is no need to worry if it is suddenly absorbed: this is how it should be. After drying, the second is smeared, after which a cover is put on the dashboard. It is imperative to make sure that garbage and other little things do not fall under the material, since it will be impossible to get them later. With a rag, you need to smooth out all the places, tighten in some places. If bubbles appear, it is better to remove them before the glue has dried: then the material will be flexible and elastic.
After completing the do-it-yourself panel constriction, you need to proceed with all the other interior details, with which everything will be much easier.
Engine tuning
For tuning the brake system, the installation for the brake pedal of vacuum boosters is suitable. This allows you to increase the pressure on the pedal. This is a big increase as the effort can double.
Despite the presence of some unification that is included in technical tuning and its styling, with the help of combination you can achieve interesting results. The most original solutions can be suggested by car service specialists who have the widest experience in working with cars.
Here is such a tuning of a VAZ 2115 car with your own hands. Nowadays, if you wish, you can do a lot. The main thing is not to be afraid to conduct experiments, then you can easily achieve the desired result.
It is recommended to show your imagination, to express creative impulses on the car, first when carrying out work on changing the interior design. This recommendation has to do with what exactly is inside vehicle there is a lot of room for work, since almost all changes are not prohibited by the rules road traffic and will cause problems when re-registering the car. Also, do not forget that failures in tuning the exterior will immediately fall into the eyes of passers-by and other drivers, and if the tuning of the salon fails, everything can be changed, moreover, at any time.
Among domestic cars Note - the model initially has a rather attractive exterior and average build quality, in the right hands it can become a real masterpiece of the art of auto-tuning.
Padding of the car interior
You can significantly change the design of the vehicle interior by using a different material for trim panels. This kind of work is called hauling. It allows you to replace the old fabric with a new one.
What will be the final cost of such a revision - it all depends on the preference of the customer and his choice. There are quite a few various materials that can be used to upholster the vehicle interior. The features of the work under consideration include the following points:
- It is quite difficult to perform a high-quality constriction on your own. To do this, you need to have certain skills and equipment. It is advisable to entrust the work to real professionals who specialize in providing such services. Only in this case can you be sure that the result will justify the desire.
- If you contact a company that performs such work, then you can count on the fact that experts will recommend on the choice of material. It should be borne in mind that you should not dwell on very bright materials that attract a lot of attention. The interior should be neutral, since only in this case it is possible to reduce eye strain during a long trip.
- If you do tuning, then it is of high quality. We recommend that you abandon artificial materials that will not last long. An example of using artificial material is your old salon. At the same time, the new fabric will reach such a state in just a couple of years. If you use a substitute, then it's expensive. Cheap materials are susceptible to ultraviolet radiation, wear out quickly, and spilled coffee cannot be removed.
As previously noted, the end result is more dependent on the quality of the work.
If the hauling is not done well even when using good material, then the work will be in vain. Therefore, you should not skimp on the professional performance of the work.
Replacing the speaker system
Another way to significantly change the vehicle interior is to install new acoustics. Good sound in a car is the dream of many car owners. Established, to put it mildly, is of low quality. Also, do not forget about the radio tape recorder, which plays tracks.
It should also be of high quality, otherwise the installation of expensive acoustics will not lead to an improvement in sound. Replacement of the speaker system should be carried out taking into account the information below:
1. In order for the sound in the car to be surround, several additional speakers should be installed at once. At the same time, you can choose high-quality tweeters that do not have high power. Better to put some buzzer low power than one powerful one. When using a high-quality radio, the sound will be distributed through the channels, which creates a truly unusual effect.
2. It is best to carry out the installation of acoustics at the time of constriction or insulation of the cabin. This is due to the fact that for new buzzer you will need seats... They can be made in doors and other trim elements.
3. No acoustics is complete without a subwoofer. He is responsible for the bass, which the tweeters do not reproduce. This element of acoustics has large enough dimensions, which determines the difficulty in choosing a place for its installation.
4. Do not forget about the correct placement of the wiring and its fixation.
Sidebar: Important: Complex loudspeakers require an amplifier to be installed, which is also powered. Therefore, as in the case of covering the interior, the installation of acoustics should be entrusted to professionals in the field of activity in question.
Installation of electric glass lifters
The car in question was also produced with a mechanical glass lifter - the last century, which is still haunted by the domestic auto industry. In order for passengers and the driver himself to be comfortable, the installation of electric lifts should be carried out.
You can do this upgrade yourself. This is due to the fact that the lift is acquired from disassembly. You can choose a design that was installed on a more expensive package specific model, which determines the ease of installation.
Problems can arise only when the mechanism is connected to a power source, since for this you will have to create chips and lay the wiring yourself.
Also, problems may arise with the output of the glass control unit. As a rule, the buttons are located directly on the door, they can be duplicated on another panel. Therefore, when buying a power window, you should also select handles with power window control buttons.
If it becomes possible to duplicate the control unit on other panels, which will increase the comfort of performing this function.
Climate change inside the cabin
Another refinement is the installation of an air conditioner. During a warm couple of years, quite a lot of breakdown occurs with a significant increase in temperature in the cabin. On sale you can find small car air conditioners, which can be installed on a VAZ. Quite a lot of difficulties arise with such a refinement.
To begin with, you should pay attention to the fact that the design does not provide for a compartment for the air conditioner, which is large enough. Therefore, the installation involves changing the front torpedo: quite often they sacrifice the glove compartment, using its space to install the air conditioner.
Also, do not forget that an air supply is needed for such a structure to work. In this case, the air must be filtered, since the ingress of debris causes a significant reduction in the service life of the structure in question. For the air conditioner to work, power must be supplied - another reason why you should entrust the work to real professionals.
Improving convenience by changing seats
Another rather popular way of tuning a car is the installation of new seats. At the factory, old chairs were installed at the VAZ, which significantly differ from modern versions.
At the same time, over time, they lost their appearance, elasticity and other qualities.
Modern armchairs are, first of all, various kinds of body support. An example would be lateral support, lumbar or leg support. The availability of support determines the following factors:
- Comfort is increased, which means long-distance travel does not cause many problems.
- The driving conditions are improved, especially when cornering. A steep roll causes the body of the driver and passengers to shift. In order to combat the inertial force, the driver has to tense his back muscles and hold on to the steering wheel tighter. This kind of problem can be solved thanks to lateral support.
- The appearance of these seats is very attractive. Note that initially lateral support appeared on sports cars, and only after they began to be installed in ordinary cars.
This kind of tuning is quite simple to implement, but it can be quite expensive. This is due to the fact that there are special seat kits on sale that fit the vehicle in question.
The installation process consists only in dismantling the old seats and installing new ones. The choice is quite large, you can choose the seats for the design of the vehicle interior.
Expert opinion
Michael. I am engaged in professional provision of services for covering the vehicle interior with new fabric. I note right away that I quite often come across a situation when I have to redo it after trying to do the work myself. In this case, only costs only increase, since the previously used material becomes unusable when an independent attempt is made to perform work.
Igor. I am engaged in the installation of air conditioning systems on cars. An air conditioner is a complex and rather expensive piece of equipment that must be properly installed for long-term operation. You can put it on a VAZ, it is quite difficult to work due to the lack of this option, even on expensive trim levels... Therefore, the cost of the service is high.
Gregory. Do you want to increase your comfort in the car and travel long distances without feeling tired? Side-bolstered seats are specially designed for the task at hand. You can buy them with delivery, installation will not cause much difficulty.
Denis. I can consider myself to be fans of VAZs, since for all my experience as a driver I have driven only cars from the domestic auto industry. After much deliberation, I chose 2115 tons for myself and did not regret it at all - after the modifications, the car does not look like the money that was invested in it.
