Abroad on Suzuki Grand Vitara SUVs, tuning is done in absolutely any service station. In Russia, only enthusiasts undertake such a thing, and in most cases they are the car owners themselves. It is not clear why our drivers characterize the Suzuki Grand Vitara as a crossover, avoiding the installation of larger diameter discs and power bumpers, if it is a full-fledged 4x4 SUV. Probably, it's all about the dimensions, because this "Japanese" is the most compact in its class. But be that as it may, it is quite possible to destroy the myth that Vitara belongs to SUVs. How exactly, you will find out right now.

"Suzuki Grand Vitara" 2013: tuning with power bumpers

First of all, you should take care of installing steel bumpers. The plastic that Suzuki's shock elements are now made from makes it more glamorous, which is superfluous off-road. A real SUV should be equipped with a steel bumper, preferably with a winch. After that, it's hard to say that the Suzuki Grand Vitara is an urban crossover.

Installing larger wheels

Good luckthe installation of 17-inch wheels will emphasize the new look of the car. If you really prepare your car for off-road tracks, it is best to use mud or extreme tires as rubber. However, do not forget that not always such wheels can fit in the wheel arches.

If these are 17-inch wheels, you will also have to make a suspension play, that is, raise the car body 4-5 centimeters up (the clearance remains unchanged). This incurs additional costs, so plan ahead for tire sizes.

Suzuki Grand Vitara: tuning with a snorkel

This long plastic pipe, the top of which ends at the roof, is installed on SUVs for a reason. In fact, a snorkel makes a real submarine out of a simple car, since it will submerge until water flows inside this pipe, which is at least 1.5-2 meters. This device performs the function of an air intake, and while the main part of the engine compartment is “immersed”, the necessary amount of air is delivered from above to the internal combustion engine for its normal operation.

Installation of engine protection on the SUV "Suzuki Grand Vitara"

Tuning, if in the future the car will conquer off-road, is impossible without additional engine protection. And although standard protection is installed on this SUV, its strength and characteristics do not guarantee that the engine will not be damaged after another collision with a moat. Therefore, we establish an additional mandatoryorder on the Suzuki Grand Vitara.

Tuning optics

In addition, you can install a trunk on the roof and place the so-called chandelier there. The installation of round fog lamps on a power bumper will also successfully complement the illumination.
