Altezza Gita - Toyota Altezza, 2.0 liter, 2001
I owned this beauty for almost 4 years. The car was bought in 2006, it was completely empty, no body kits, no music, on caps, no fogs, with a mileage of 70 thousand, for 4 years of ownership, I tried to change almost everything in it)))
The history of car tuning began in In 2007, when I was accidentally offered a tuning front bumper in a terrible state for a nominal fee, I restored it and redid it a little (at the same time mastering the basics in working with fiberglass), and then the long tuning process began.
The first step was to install the front bumper, were immediately borrowed from a teammate thresholds, from which the matrix was immediately removed and molded thresholds. Then the eyelashes were made, installed xenon headlights 6000K. Then 16" wheels were bought.
Next, I began to search for a gearbox with a lock, which was soon found and installed, but the soul demanded to continue. was bought radio Pioneer 6000th, two amplifiers, Subic Hertz. Under the subwoofer body was made in the wing of fiberglass, the rear windows of the car toned. Next etopom were made struts, rear top and bottom, the machine has become more downed.
Soon the front bumper with our roads suffered and I decided to make another, took a few bumpers removed the matrix and began to pick up. (I ask you not to kick the dirty car on some of the photos), but as a result, the original Git bumper with a lip was left, I liked it more. Together with the replacement of the bumper, and tried to change the sills, grille and eyelashes, the rear skirt was made. Next was bought casting Enkei Rivazza 17 inches and tires Goodyear Eagle F1. (Rubber as the ride showed super). The next thing I bought tumanki and put xenon in them, CCFL 7000K angel eyes were also bought and installed in the headlights, the headlights were blackened.
The next step was the suspension, absolutely by accident I bought Gab Prosso coilovers with stiffness and height adjustments. Accidentally turned up disk gear 1 way TRD, who immediately took. It became absolutely not comfortable to ride on the disk block, despite the fact that the car is on mechanics. It was removed and sold to a friend who is into drifting.
Well, now a little about the engine. The engine is very good 6 cylinders, very good bottoms, of course the top is not enough in spite of VVTI, saves only manual transmission. But even here, not everything is going smoothly with the Altezki, the box is very short in 6th gear at 3 thousand revolutions, the speed is 95 km / h. The motor is not whimsical, it was filled with 92 benzyl, while the flow rate is 10 liters in a calm style, with at least 12 annealing)). Consumption on the highway was very surprised at a speed of 120-140 — 7.5 liters per hundred. The suspension surprised me too, for 4 years of operation I only changed the rubber bands on the rear stabilizer and davanula one rack this winter in the cold.
I really liked the Alteza salon, everything was done conveniently, the quality of the products was on top, the plastic was soft, I really liked the instrument panel, but there is a minus - these are the seats, they are not very comfortable, here the engineers made a mistake. In general, my assessment of the car is as follows:
1. Appearance — 5.
2.Salon -4 (only because of the seats)
3.Podveska -5.
4.KPP — 4 (would be longer transmission)
5. Engine -5 (want to drive take 3c, and 1g for a comfortable ride)
Soon there were circumstances and the car had to be sold.
But not everything is so sad in the family, the Torneo Sirte remained and now it will be subject to tuning, but more on that in another bortovik.
