How to make tuning "Zaporozhets"?

Zaporozhets is a truly legendary car. During his entire period of existence, he managed to conquer the hearts of millions of motorists. But now many drivers do not understand why to purchase ZAZ 968, especially to do tuning "Zaporozhets", if you can buy a newer car. However, where else can you find a car that costs 1.5 thousand rubles? Moreover, a good tuning "Zaporozhets" will cost no more than 10 thousand rubles, which in comparison with foreign cars is negligible. Therefore, if you have an old ZAZ in your garage, you have a great opportunity to turn the "old trough" into a real racing car.

Zaporozhets 968M: tuning of the engine

And start off best with the engine. First of all, you need to increase its working volume. To achieve the desired result, the standard cylinder piston group must be replaced with a larger diameter piece. You can take similar pistons from the VAZ "classics" and install on the 1.2-liter engine ZAZ. Thus, you can add "Zaporozhets" at least 0.1 liters of working volume. When forcing the engine, it is desirable to fix the piston pin. At the end, you can replace or adjust the carburettor. In the first case, the part is replaced with the VAZ 2108, in the second - the fuel jets are changed.
Forcing the engine. Method number 2

If the previous method can take a lot of time and effort from you, then the next method is suitable for those who do not want to spend extra time on tuning. To increase the capacity of "Zaporozhets", you can simply install on it a motor from the "BMW". Rest assured, horsepower ZAZ just enough. Together with the engine, it is necessary to make and replace the transmission, since the domestic transmission is incompatible with the German engine. In time it can take about a day or two, plus the search for the motor itself is the same. However, the next stage can take you much more time than the search and installation of units. Registration is the most difficult stage in this work. To register all changes and make them in the technical passport, you will have to spend a lot of time in the traffic police. And it is not a fact that the inspectors will agree to enter these data in the car's passport. Therefore, here you need to calculate the additional costs for changing your Zaporozhets.

Tuning: interior photo

This photo is not very similar to Spartan salon ZAZ. Most likely, you will think that this is the interior of any foreign car. But this is really ZAZ 968th model. Of course, to make such a salon, you need to spend a lot of time and money. What is most difficult: on ZAZ it is impossible to install a torpedo from another car. All the details are done by yourself. However, the result, of course, will be astonishing: every passenger will be delighted with the trip on such a car.

If you do not wish to develop a salon yourself, you can restore the former by replacing all parts with similar ones. Thus, after you make a repair tuning of "Zaporozhets", your ZAZ will acquire a fresh, and most importantly, factory interior with minimal costs for materials and other items. All you need is a few meters of plating, an aerosol with paint, a pair of plastic and metal parts and patience. Then such tuning of "Zaporozhets" will definitely not be left without attention.
