Many car enthusiasts prefer not only domestic inexpensive cars, but also foreign cars - for example, the affordable and reliable Daewoo Nexia, the tuning of the interior and other elements of which can be done by hand. Many car owners start changes from the exterior and end with the technical part, which allows not only to give the car an original appearance, but also to improve driving performance and dynamics.

Nexia engine tuning

The main problem associated with tuning the Daewoo Nexia engine is the difficulty in selecting high-quality spare parts for an outdated power unit. Many car owners are of the opinion that it is inexpedient and pointless to upgrade an engine with a volume of 1.5 liters and a power of 75 horsepower. The main argument is the fact that it is possible to strengthen the engine by a maximum of 30 additional horsepower, because of which it will lose its working resource.

The gas distribution mechanism and the piston assembly can be replaced with the original German counterpart. Despite the high quality of such parts, they are very expensive and it is rather difficult to find them if you do not order them.directly from the manufacturer. It's much easier to buy a new engine and tune it with modified power settings.

Tuning "Nexia" often involves the installation of a compressor to pump the fuel-air mixture, which improves engine performance. Experts note that with such a change, it is necessary to correctly set the working pressure, which should be a maximum of 0.5 atmospheres.

Other types of engine tuning

The Daewoo Nexia engine rarely undergoes more serious changes, since almost all of them require complex and time-consuming work. Accordingly, it is rather difficult to produce this type of Nexia tuning with your own hands. As a rule, the following procedures are carried out:

• replacing the native camshaft with a similar one, but with a higher valve opening;
• boring cylinders for pistons of a different diameter;
• intake manifold improvement and forward flow installation;
• installation of a compressor equipped with a regulator;
• grinding manifolds.

The upgraded engine requires the installation of forged pistons, reinforced connecting rods, an improved timing system and a lightweight flywheel. This also includes composite brake pads and enhanced grip. Such tuning of the Nexia is carried out mainly by those who are professionally or semi-professional racers.

External tuning "Nexia"

Most car owners start tuning by changing the appearance of the car. Judging by the numerous photos, tuning the Nexia necessarily implies the installation of spoilers, body kits, wheels, tinting and many other accessories. To conduct it really at home and on your own - just get the necessary details and a set of keys and screwdrivers.

With the help of this tuning "Nexia" you can not only improve the appearance of the car, but also improve its aerodynamic characteristics. Often, car owners try to change the light elements of the car. Tuning the headlights of the Nexia often consists in replacing the standard ones with xenon counterparts and combining the direction indicators and side lights. In the same way, the taillights are modified. Often, additional bumper washers are installed, headlights are tinted using a special film.

Deflectors: what are they and what are they for?

Such tuning elements of "Nexia" improve the appearance of the car without impairing its dynamic characteristics, but at the same time make the lines of its body more elegant and light. Install them on the hood and windows. Their practical use is to protect the interior from precipitation from ajar windows and to prevent fogging of the windows. Hood-mounted deflectors protect the car body from deformations and scratches caused by small stones flying out from under the wheels of vehicles in front.

Tuning salon "DaewooNexia"

The interior of the car can hardly be called attractive and original. Therefore, many motorists seek to tune the Nexia interior. First change the following items:

• upholstery and seats;
• backlight;
• steering wheel.

Leather and other materials pull the door cards, seats, information block. The final result depends on the financial capabilities of the car owner and his preferences.

Tuning the dashboard quite often includes the installation of a regular multimedia system with a liquid crystal screen. Various sensors, backlight brightness controls are mounted. The easiest and most budgetary option for interior tuning is to replace the dashboard lighting with any other color.

Other interior changes

Many drivers are trying to replace the seats in the Daewoo Nexia with seats with lateral support, which are more comfortable. Tuning in most cases depends on the financial capabilities and preferences of the owner of the vehicle.

Some motorists prefer to install armrests in the cabin. It is very easy to purchase such an element, you can install it yourself, while it makes the trip more comfortable and convenient.

Daewoo Nexia engine chip tuning

Engineers of the Korean automobile concern, relying on environmental requirements and the need to reduce fuel consumption, are forced to reduce the power performance of their car engines. ATTherefore, the main goal of Daewoo Nexia chip tuning is to increase engine power while maintaining low fuel consumption.

The result depends on the operating mode of the power unit, the qualifications of the specialist and the complexity of the changes made to the electronic control unit and other engine systems.

Successful chip tuning of the engine is considered if, after reconfiguration, the power of the power unit increases by 5–10% simultaneously with an increase in torque by 10–18%. Engine power, provided it is equipped with a supercharger, can be increased by 20-25%, and torque - by 15-20%.

The main problems of the Daewoo Nexia are difficulties during acceleration, dips during acceleration and twitching when shifting gears. Car owners have repeatedly noted that the engine power declared by the manufacturer does not always correspond to acceleration dynamics. This discrepancy is one of the reasons for the sharp increase in fuel consumption when trying to actively drive a car of this make and model.

To achieve both a reduction in fuel consumption and an increase in engine power is possible only through the correct chip tuning. Despite this, you need to choose the firmware either based on the increase in its dynamic return, or based on efficiency.

What does the Nexia engine chip tuning include?

The main goal of chip tuning the Nexia power unit is the competent introduction of changes into the regular program of the electronic unitengine control. The control program has its own database, which contains calibration and correction values for certain modes of motor operation.

The operation of the executive systems is regulated by the ECU based on the signals received from the sensors. Daewoo Nexia engine firmware contains modified coefficients that change the injection moment, idle speed, maximum speed, ignition timing and vehicle speed.

It is very risky to perform engine chip tuning on your own. Special equipment for flashing is not cheap, so not everyone can afford to buy it. The programmer can be rented, but improper handling of the vehicle's electronics can lead to the opposite result.

Specialists often advise those who are skeptical about the idea of chip tuning to ride a chipped Daewoo Nexia. From the first minutes of the trip, you can feel the difference in the dynamics of the car: the engine with the changed settings is not only more powerful, but also more elastic and has a smoother ride. At all speed ranges, he pulls confidently and very rarely "asks" to downshift.

The catalyst installed on the car engine, even in good condition, takes at least 2% of its power, so after installing a new firmware, it is advised to dismantle it. Before starting the process, it is advised to check its performance: it is likely that it is completely clogged, which is typical for most used Daewoo Nexia cars.

An important feature is that after the chip tuning of the engine, the car can only be filled with Premium 95 gasoline, not lower.

Conclusion

Photo tuning "Nexia" allows us to judge that such a modernization of the car makes it possible not only to change its appearance, but also to improve performance and make the movement more comfortable. In most cases, car owners mount the following items:

• Spoilers.
• Original rapids.
• Light alloy or alloy wheels.
• Bumpers.
• Updated lighting equipment.
• Radiator.

In the interior of the car, the steering wheel, dashboard, plastic, seats, upholstery are being remade. Most of the tuning can be done on your own without large investments, however, some operations related to technical changes are carried out only by specialists in car workshops.
