Increasing rear suspension stiffness
In order to tune the rear suspension of the VAZ-2107, you need to replace several components. Namely: springs, shock absorbers, silent blocks and rubber bumpers.
In order to make a balanced modification of the rear suspension of the VAZ-2107, you need to take into account the lift height and spring length. You may have to remove a few threads to get the correct fit. The springs need to be changed to more powerful and stiffer ones. Usually good for replacing springs from a Niva car.
The next step is to replace the shock absorbers. The main thing here is to meet the requirements. It is better to look for shock absorbers with a fixed rod, as they are usually much stiffer than their counterparts.
Even seemingly insignificant parts: bumpers and silent blocks must be replaced with more reliable and powerful ones. Because abrasion of rubber bands leads to deterioration in car control. This is immediately felt, so upgrading the chassis makes the car more reliable to use.
Tuning the interior of the seven
There are drivers who understand that most of the time they are inside the car. And it is much more important for the driver and passengers that the cabin is warm, comfortable and cozy. That’s why interior modifications are so popular among tuning enthusiasts. Check out the materials that will help you turn a standard cabin into a cozy and beautiful place to relax while traveling.

Let's talk about VAZ 2103
The Troika makes external improvements in different ways. You can install an ultra-modern plastic bumper, equip the design with alternative optics with specialized elements that increase the aerodynamic properties of the car, and replace the wheels. You can see in the photo below the tuning of the Troika, which changed the car beyond recognition - some find a special chic in this.
It is also recommended to think about improving the parameters of the standard optics - you can work with it or replace it with something more modern and convenient. LED inserts into optics are one of the simplest and most popular approaches to making changes to the design of machine optics.
Inside the cabin, you can make the following changes - install sports seats instead of standard ones, and do the same with the steering wheel. If you also replace the upholstery and work on the dashboard, it will turn out to be very cozy.

DIY carburetor repair
Cars without an injector are still relevant on our roads. Moreover, their owners usually like to repair breakdowns themselves, which are already quite common with long service life. Among these breakdowns there are malfunctions of the most complex air and gasoline supply unit. Therefore, many car enthusiasts are faced with the question of how to repair a carburetor with their own hands.
Especially when engine interruptions begin, and it is not possible to configure such a complex unit. In practice, it fails, and for several reasons. Let's list them.
- Due to the complexity of the channel design, the service life of the unit is short.
- Regular use of bad gasoline negatively affects parts, channels, and surfaces of the assembly unit.
- The entry of crankcase gases into the unit when engine components are worn out also has an effect.
- The entry of dirt particles, for example through the air filter housing, can have an abrasive effect, which can cause defects on surfaces.
Next, we’ll look step by step at how to repair a VAZ car with your own hands.
How expensive is it
The cost of modifying a car entirely depends on what exactly needs to be improved, what spare parts you will have to buy for this, whether you buy the service at the appropriate car service center or do the tuning yourself. The price of the same change may vary several times depending on your requests. For example, a simple installation of fog lights can cost no more than a thousand rubles if you take inexpensive lamps and do everything yourself. If you want to install it yourself, and even entrust this task to specialists, then be prepared to spend several thousand on it. On the other hand, tuning is not repair. The car can easily survive without these optional modifications. Therefore, you need to take a simpler approach to cost: if you have a desire to improve something and have enough money for it, that’s great; there is no desire or money - well, let it remain as it is.
What can be changed in the “Six”
If you have a Six, tuning can be done in various ways - it all depends on how much money, effort and time you are willing to spend on it. One of the simplest and most accessible means is airbrushing - many people do tuning of the VAZ 2106 using a creative approach and brighter colors.
Tuning a VAZ 2106 is done by changing the design of the car's hood, installing a new plastic body kit, and choosing alternative optics instead of standard ones.
There are very interesting and unusual solutions in this regard.
Tuning a VAZ 2106 car
The upholstery of a car can completely copy that of a limousine - for this, some owners choose velor or velvet.
The dashboard is designed in the same spirit - it looks unusual and vintage. It even has a small TV with a kinescope built into it. The sound system speakers are located above the driver.
We talked above about how optics can be improved - in the video you can see how it looks on the “Six”
What to watch out for
After looking at photos of cool tuned sevens, some car enthusiasts begin to look at their “horse” differently. If just yesterday he seemed like a magnificent handsome man, then today I already want to do a little auto tuning on him. Price often doesn't matter. Some “hot guys” install a transparent glass sunroof on their classics, doors that open like a Lamborghini, install a heavy non-original engine, which has an expensive price... How reasonable is all this? In fact, the price of extensive body and engine modifications is extremely inflated. If you have a lot of money and want a cool car, isn’t it better to buy another solution? Fortunately, today there are many good options on the car market for every taste and color. But you should think about your own safety. Proper tuning for the VAZ 2107 is a good thing and often even very useful. It’s not bad when your cabin is warm, there is no unnecessary noise and beautiful music is playing. But many tuned sevens are good only at first glance. Incorrectly set adjustments, unsuitable spare parts, too heavy doors and other “foreign” objects can turn your car not into a means of transportation, but into a real death machine. And what difference will it make to you how your car accelerates if this car gets into a terrible accident? Therefore, before tuning your car, you need to think carefully several times about what exactly should be done and what should be avoided. Don't trust everything they write on the Internet. Consult with experts who really understand these issues. And make only those changes that are truly safe for you and your passengers.
The Hungarian way to cross a VAZ-2107 and a Nissan with a turbo V6
Externally, it is almost factory stock, but a high-quality restored VAZ 2107 car in bright orange color. But having looked closely, or even better, listened to how its engine sounds, you understand that craftsmen from Hungary have done something special with our car.
Opening the hood, you immediately understand that the creators, with great difficulty, but also with great skill, integrated the turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 VQ35DE engine from Nissan into the engine compartment. Its approximate power is now 450-500 hp.
However, for this it was necessary to significantly redraw the engine shield and transmission tunnel, manufacture a new exhaust system and many other technologically complex things.
Installing an auto-dimming interior mirror
And so, the topic is for those whose cars, for any reason, do not have tinted rear windows and who experience discomfort when driving at night on highways and in the city due to the illumination of the headlights of cars behind. Enough tolerating this! There are several solutions to this problem: you can simply tint the rear window or tint the mirror itself. I think that there is no need to explain all the shortcomings of this method. It so happens that I have no tint and the mirror does not have a day/night mode switch. Therefore, it was decided to install a rear-view mirror from a foreign car with automatic dimming.
Installation of hydraulic compensators
It will be much easier to purchase an assembled cylinder head with hydraulic compensators for a VAZ-2107. But if you still decide to redo it yourself, then follow these steps:
- All channels through which oil flows must be closed during the work.
- Install hydraulic pusher bushings.
- Press the block head washers.
- Press the O-rings into the hydraulic tappet plate.
- Mount the entire mechanism on the head.
- Install the springs and plungers, then install the valve drive levers 4, 6, 7, 8.
- Check the stroke of the plungers and make adjustments if necessary.
- You need to make a hole in the camshaft pastel and place a tube in it.
- When installing the hydraulic system, ensure that all pipes are directed correctly.
Typically, hydraulic pushers come with detailed instructions that indicate the pipe routing diagram for each engine type.
