Tuning GAZ-3302 - do-it-yourself modernization of a gazelle

Tuning the interior of GAZ 3302

Tuning the GAZ-3302 interior is an opportunity to make the car more comfortable. Internal tuning includes:

• Installation of the latest audio and video systems;
• Sound insulation work;
• Installation of comfortable chairs;
• Covering with high-quality materials;
• Replacement of steering wheel and gear knob;
• Installation works of air conditioning systems;
• Installation of modern alarm systems.

All these changes to the GAZ-3302 interior allow the driver to drive the car with greater comfort and be proud of its individuality.

External tuning GAZ 3302

This concept refers to the installation of attachments designed to improve handling. The most popular tuning elements that are installed on the GAZ-3302 are: bumpers, fairings, visors and aprons. The bumper is an energy-absorbing element that the manufacturer installs at the front and rear of the car. The new bumper can change the design of the GAZ-3302 beyond recognition, giving it a unique style. Fairings are used to improve the aerodynamic characteristics of the Gazelle, resulting in fuel consumption savings of approximately twenty percent. A visor is a small but incredibly useful thing. In addition to giving the car aesthetic qualities, the visor protects the driver and passenger from the blinding rays of the sun. Aprons provide maximum protection for the car hood from corrosion. On the GAZ-3302, this element covers the radiator and gives the vehicle a more aesthetic appearance.

Roof spoiler

There are car enthusiasts who believe that the fairing on the roof of the GAZ 3302 is installed for beauty. The spoiler may be a decoration, but first of all it is intended to improve the technical characteristics of the car. With the fairing, 5-10% of fuel is saved, and the car becomes more stable on the highway. And this is not an advertisement for a product at all - the spoiler is actually a useful improvement for the Gazelle.

It is especially effective on vans or tall Gazelles, where the resistance to oncoming air flow is quite high. It is the fairing that reduces resistance to headwinds.

Cabin and interior tuning

The interior and cabin of a car is probably one of the greatest spaces for the flight of creative imagination. When tuning the interior and cabin, the following upgrades are usually carried out:

• Replacement of internal panels made of low-quality plastic with more comfortable materials;
• Replacing seats with more comfortable ones when transporting passengers over long distances;
• Replacement of steering wheel, instrument panel, driver's seats.

In the passenger version of the gazelle, you can also tune the passenger compartment using LED strips. Their installation is very simple, and they are powered by a 12-volt battery. In this case, you can choose absolutely any range of backlight colors.

LED strips can be used to illuminate not only the interior itself, but also the passage between the seats.

They have a long service life and consume very little electricity.

Most often, the exit steps, passenger seats and the passage itself are equipped with lighting. The backlight control system can be displayed on the dashboard or, which is cheaper, connected directly to the car's ignition system. All these operations can be easily done without resorting to the services of specialists. Do-it-yourself Gazelle tuning videos can be found on the Internet quite easily.

Tuning the Gazelle's interior

The three of us in the cabin of the on-board Gazelle are frankly a bit cramped. But if you convert the right sofa into a single chair and forget about the second passenger, it will turn out luxurious. The Gazelle's interior is covered in white leather to enhance the feeling of luxury.

The “gentleman’s kit” for tuning the Gazelle’s interior usually includes:

— equipping the doors with electric window lifts;

— replacing the standard heater with a more efficient one;

— installation of ergonomic seats;

— installation of audiovisual equipment;

— production of a ceiling console (or shelf);

— alteration of the dashboard with installation of an on-board computer.

Reconstructing the drive of the sliding windows is simple and does not cause difficulties even for a novice gazelle driver. Heating is being improved in two ways. The first way is to replace the fan and radiator with more efficient devices; the second way is to install (usually under the passenger seat) an additional stove, preferably an autonomous one.

The ceiling console is used to accommodate non-standard electronics, speakers, and lighting fixtures. It has been found out experimentally: using a homemade ceiling shelf for transporting all sorts of small items sooner or later turns into a useful addition to the bomb bay. Don't go wrong with your choice!

Plastic hood

Replacing a standard gazelle hood is not just a design whim. The stamped metal hood, which is inclined to the ground at an angle of almost 45 degrees, is often subject to various mechanical stress. Insects, crushed stone, etc. - all this can damage the coating, or even deform the hood itself. In this regard, plastic is a more elastic and durable material.

Plastic is an equivalent substitute for products made from steel materials

We sell spare components from reliable, economical plastic bases. Our retail and wholesale customers are offered plastic for Gazelle , which has increased levels of wear resistance. Plastic also has no corrosion problems. We produce the following types of body parts and accessories:

• plastic for Gazelle Next;
• plastic for Gazelle Business.

Gazelle tuning store provides mutually beneficial and optimal conditions for wholesale and retail sales:

• hoods for Gazelle made of plastic;
• bumpers for Gazelle made of plastic;
• wings for Gazelle made of plastic;
• overlays for Gazelle made of plastic.

The sold samples of the proposed products are slightly inferior to their metal counterparts in terms of hardness, but they are distinguished by their improved resistance to moisture, temperature changes, and harmful chemical compounds. They, as a rule, maintain integrity under mechanical shocks, do not wear out or lose their performance even with intensive use, and have a lightweight design and shock-proof flexibility.

Chip tuning

Do-it-yourself Gazelle chip tuning is the first thing you need to do when upgrading your car. After all, the factory engine may be imperfect, have increased fuel consumption or reduced power. The main problems of the Gazelle gasoline engine are:

• Floating speed;
• Low traction at medium and low speeds;
• Failures in operation during gas transfer;

Engine tuning is simply necessary when using the Gazelle in heavy city traffic. And on the highway when overtaking there will be no excess engine power at all.

The main thing to remember is that chip tuning should only be carried out in trusted workshops with good specialists. Trying to save money here can lead to very sad consequences.

Tuning the M-402 engine

The basic engine of the Gazelle M-402 has a number of design flaws, which, however, craftsmen have learned to correct:

• Engine torque can be significantly increased by installing a weighted flywheel. At the same time, however, fuel consumption and wear of the internal combustion engine will slightly increase;
• An increase in power of up to 10 percent can be obtained by abandoning the standard air filter and replacing it with a filter with zero resistance;
• Additional sealing of the motor - M-402, like any other domestic engine, does not differ in build quality and constant oil leaks are not uncommon here. Especially when it comes to an old car. Therefore, coating the gaskets with a layer of sealant will not be a superfluous procedure. Also, the gaskets can be cut from cork yourself, which will be much more reliable and durable.

Power plant modernization

In order to reduce fuel costs, many drivers switch their cars to gas. Installing HBO on a Gazelle will cost from 30 thousand rubles.

Many drivers experience the engine overheating. This happens especially often in the summer heat when driving slowly around the city or while stuck in a traffic jam. To solve the problem of overheating of the power plant, owners install an additional fan on the radiator.

One of the cardinal options for tuning a power unit is installing a motor from another car. The most popular engines for these purposes are from Japanese minibuses and SUVs. The cost of the alteration is from 150 thousand rubles. At the same time, it is also possible to improve the original engine by replacing the air filter with a zero filter or installing a turbine.

Light tuning of Gazelle

The light of your car's headlights can also be improved. At the same time, the safety of driving on night roads and in fog improves. There are a great many options for replacing headlights for a Gazelle. But almost all options are already offered for new models, but for cars that are 15 years old, there is practically no choice. Also, you should know that installing new running lights requires partial changes to the body, so sometimes drivers are limited to restoring the luminosity of the old headlight.

DIY Gazelle tuning

For the owner of a Gazelle car, a tuning store is necessary as a reliable supplier of necessary accessories and parts. The wide range of the ML52.RF online store allows for comprehensive tuning of the Gazelle , as well as modification of Gazelle Farmer cars (with a 6-7 seater cabin). We sell the following main products with excellent performance:

• A spacious shelf above the windshield for a walkie-talkie or necessary papers. The difference is the original design development.
• Shield - radiator insulation in white and black. Improves engine thermal balance.
• Durable bumper for Gazelle. Many options for bumper design and paint colors.
• Modern models of front fenders: left and right.
• Compact moldings for Gazelle thresholds and doors.
• Mirrors with manual and electric rotating mechanism. Additional pads with functional design.
• Modern modifications of hoods for Business and Next models, as well as models of old-style hoods.
• Right/left main and fog lights from trusted manufacturers.
• Steering wheel (steering wheel) with soft coating.
• Ergonomic engine cooling fans with original factory parameters.
• High-quality interior upholstery for the left and right doors of the Gazelle.
• Removable plastic caps of the latest modifications for R16 wheels.

Bumper tuning

Tuning the bumper is the simplest option for modifying the Gazelle. At the same time, bumper tuning provides the following additional benefits: Reduced aerodynamic drag and fuel consumption.

• Possibility of “beautiful” installation of fog lights;
• Improved airflow of the water cooling radiator;
• Changing the car's exterior design.

A new bumper costs very little - about 3 thousand rubles. For this money you can get a model made of high-quality plastic, painted to suit every taste. Tuning the Gazelle Next can also be done with an unpainted original bumper, which already has places for mounting fog lights.

As we can see, tuning the Gazelle is more of a necessity than a simple whim of its owner. Properly carried out modernization can not only increase comfort for passengers and the driver, raise the aesthetics of appearance to a new level, but also significantly improve the driving characteristics of the car. Gazelle is the brainchild of the domestic automobile industry, but with properly selected operating conditions and skillful tuning, this car will be able to “compete” with its more famous foreign competitors. Despite the fact that the operation of the Gazelle is several times cheaper.

ACCESSORIES, TUNING

Accessories for tuning a gazelle help the driver navigate the road and create comfort inside the car. When purchasing a car, it is recommended to additionally purchase the following accessories that will help you on your travels. This article will introduce you to 8 famous accessories. Accessories for the next gazelle are practically no different from a regular gazelle, with the exception of the dimensions due to the size of the cabin. There is a separate section for tuning the interior; this section presents improved standard devices. A side or on-board video recorder will provide you with recorded evidence material when offenses occur in areas of road accidents. It is important to securely and correctly secure the recorder so that it does not wobble. Take seriously the selection of the registrar itself and its location. Nowadays, how can you do without a navigator that will direct you to a route convenient for you? It is easy to use and is most often added to you at the factory when you assemble your machine. This navigator will easily guide you around the city, taking into account traffic jams and difficult traffic. Do you like long trips in your car? Then you cannot do without a portable car refrigerator that can keep your food both warm and cold. In the summer heat, a cool bottle of water will not hurt, and in cold weather, warm tea or coffee. A compact vacuum cleaner with which you can remove sand and dry dirt from the interior and the most difficult to reach places. The kit most often contains many attachments and a power cord. If you use several products at once that constantly consume electricity, you cannot do without an adapter or, as it is also called, a splitter. It will help you connect several devices at once. People who like to get a dose of adrenaline on the road through speed should have a radar detector with them. It can detect the radar of the traffic police post within a radius of 4 km, but its power depends on the power of the device itself. It can be connected to a power source or is self-powered. Radar - the detector reports the presence of radar with intermittent signals, which will indicate the need to reduce speed to the speed limit for the given area. This product is banned in Europe. What is it like on the road without a radio or tape recorder? Music has already become a habit for drivers and helps to pass the time while traveling unnoticed. Different companies produce different types and models to suit your taste. In the summer heat, there is a need to refresh the car interior.
