So, my friends, for many this is not news, but for sure there will be people who will benefit from my information.
Let's talk about springs.
I got sick of this question a long time ago, while still owning a Toyota Echo.
Surfing through the expanses of the web, I remembered Drome and already there I found a branch and a specific topic of an intelligent author-experimenter TYNTS.
In short, the essence of the topic is to find a compromise between maximum ground clearance and handling.
I must say right away that I gave a topic to get acquainted with someone else's experience in order to find OWN.
A friend also had an Echo and we put him an HVAC, since he dangled a lot and not always alone and not always on good roads, his conclusion was that it became MUCH better and more comfortable, it does not break through when people are behind and does not catch on a country road .
In addition, it comes with all four power windows with auto-off function on the driver's side, driver's seat height adjuster, anti-glare rearview mirror, remote fuel cap and trunk opener adjustable to appearance door mirrors, cigarette lighter, sunglasses holder, rear fog light, central locking system and keyless entry. This model series features a huge cab with improved shoulder and headroom.
Life has made another round and I'm going to buy Echo, bought "Cardinal".
And again there were old questions with clearance.
The car has not yet been raised for the revision of the hodovka, and therefore I was puzzled in advance what I would do.
My vision is spacers, of course it's cheap and cheerful, but for me it's better to replace the springs with the best performance than regular ones.
The choice is obvious for me personally - these are HVAC springs
It has a spacious luggage compartment, which can be enlarged by folding the rear seat. It could be better on diesel, especially when the competition offers powerful diesels. Its manual six-speed petrol variants can approach a top speed of 190 km/h and can break the 100 km/h speed mark in a range of 9 to 42 seconds from a stop. Its automatic variants also have the same maximum speed, but the actuation rate varies from 11 to 13 seconds.
"There are four types of OBK springs:
1. Standard - standard springs restore the car's factory parameters;
2. Reinforced - due to the special processing of the bar, a greater spring stiffness is achieved;
3. Variable stiffness (double-winding) - a specially designed spring design more effectively dampens vehicle vibrations, as a result, driving comfort increases;
4. To increase ground clearance (Backlash) - a spring to raise the car by 2 inches (5.08 cm) without violating the geometry of the suspension.
As for diesel versions, they maximum speed ranges from 160 to 170 km/h, and a pickup with a speed mark from 0 to 100 km/h can be reached in 13-14 seconds. Not the best in class, but certainly very sleek and sophisticated mills that work well. It is built into the turbocharger and intercooler, which improves its durability. The company has cleverly paired this diesel mill with a 6-speed manual transmission.
This allows the engine to deliver mileage ranging from 5km to 53km. However, this automatic transmission drive can generate a maximum mileage of 5 km. This power train can deliver a maximum mileage of 43 km. Diesel does not receive auto. This engine is capable of producing 1 hp. which results in a maximum torque of 205 Nm. The automaker equipped this latest version effective braking mechanism. The front wheels are equipped with a set of ventilated disc brakes, while the rear wheels are equipped with a set of conventional disc brakes.
OBK numbers can have two formats - old and new. Old OBK number format: FOBTO2A890, ROBHOS10A01.
The first character indicates the location of the spring: F - front - front, R - rear - rear. OB is short for Osaka Bane.
The fourth and fifth characters are the brand of the car: TO - Toyota, NI - Nissan, SZ - Suzuki, HO - Honda, etc.
The second part of the OBK number repeats the second part of the original number: 481312A890, 52441S10A01.
In addition, the anti-lock braking system also supports electronic brake force distribution. This sedan is additionally equipped with an electronic stabilization program that strengthens its stability. When it comes to the suspension system, it is quite efficient and helps to keep the car balanced. This mechanism allows it to handle all the jerks caused on the roads and offers a comfortable driving experience.
It is built with a highly responsive power steering system that has a tilt and telescopic adjustment function that helps in smoother steering while maintaining a minimum turning radius of 4 meters. This model series is loaded with a lot of safety aspects to ensure maximum protection for its occupants. For the driver and passenger, two-stage front airbags are provided to protect them in the event of an accident. It is equipped with an anti-lock braking system, as well as electronic brake force distribution, which further improves the braking mechanism and prevents the car from slipping.
New OBK number format:
C4T42102, C4M22662, where the third letter is the make of the vehicle
(T - Toyota, H - Honda, N - Nissan, Z - Mazda, M - Mitsubishi, B - Subaru, I - Isuzu, S - Suzuki, D - Daihatsu), and the last digit is the installation location (1 - front, 2 - back).
The four digits in the middle are the serial number according to the OBK catalog.
The springs are packed in boxes of 2 and are marked with original and OBK numbers.
Its electronic engine immobilizer system prevents unauthorized entry into the vehicle. In addition to these, it has a central locking system, a high mount auxiliary brake light, a warning light when the door is closed, and a driver's seat belt alert.
While the rest of the options have alloy wheels of the same size. The increased wheelbase has improved interior space. Comfort features are on par with other competitors. Luxurious interior design is a big plus. The performance of the gasoline engine is excellent.
Judging by the official site; OBK
Black - regular
Gray - HD Type - Heavy Duty Rigid
Yellow - HDD Type - Heavy Duty Double
Red -4WD 2 inch up type - Increasing ground clearance by 2 inches
Blue - 4WD 3 inch up type - 3 inch higher ground clearance
Decide on black
The most common reviews are that black ones should not be ordered - the rod is thin, like on the original old-style spring, the length is standard, there is a possibility of repeated drawdown.
The smooth and shiny body line adds to its advantage. The fuel economy of both gasoline and diesel engines needs to be improved. There is still the possibility to add a few more functions. No upgrades for any engine. The price tag is not that competitive.
The no-frills car is sold with petrol and turbodiesel engines. This is a slow seller with big discounts. As sedans get more expensive, they get lower. Values and prices are Kelly Blue Book opinions and actual price vehicle may differ.
Further gray and blue
Reinforced (HD) - due to the special processing of the bar, a greater spring stiffness is achieved. In practice, the clearance increases by 2-5 cm, depending on the condition of the old springs.
And here a discrepancy arises, since many people simply order reinforced springs without extension, and they receive springs in size as black, only blue or gray. Or when ordering blue springs, they get a longer version than regular ones. Marking is also H, H *, HD. By "*" I settled on the option: H* and HD are one and the same, while it was indicated that the first designation is just a newer one.
The most appropriate answer seemed to me, where the color of the spring depends on the market: blue for Europe, this is the same as for Japan, silver (they are also gray). The blue ones that many received, they are the same in length as the standard ones, only the bar is thicker, these are springs not for overestimation.
Prices and equipment Toyota Corolla
Each dealer sets and controls its own price. The invoice price is the price the manufacturer charges dealers for a new vehicle, but it does not necessarily reflect the total price actually paid by the dealer for the vehicle. The invoice price includes destination rates, but does not include dealer advertising costs or expenses to sell, prepare, display or finance the vehicle. In addition, the invoice price does not include factory-to-dealer incentives and other factors that may reduce what a dealer pays for a vehicle.
New Toyota Corolla once again radically changed its specifications. There are even more fans of this legendary car around the world. In Russia, not everything is so rosy, but lovers of the new generation Toyota Corolla and we have. This article is especially for them. Today we will show photos, videos and talk about the characteristics of the Corolla and the price of this car.
The new generation of the sedan was increased in size, the body was lengthened by 8 centimeters, but the wheelbase received as much as 100 mm of extra space. To improve the aerodynamic performance of the body new Corolla done a little lower. For Russia Corolla 11th generation in the back of E170 collected in Turkey. Naturally, due to the sharp fall of the ruble, the cost of a car in recent times has grown significantly. As a result, sales of the model are falling, but Camry is being chosen more and more often, because due to the domestic assembly, Camry is preferable both in terms of price and other indicators.
The red zone falls above the range of the fair market. Special circumstances such as exceptionally low supply with high demand, dealer-installed options, and seasonality can be a factor in the sales that occur in this range.
The white zone falls below the range of the fair market. Special circumstances such as retirement years, unpopular color, excess inventory, and seasonality can all contribute to sales that occur within this range. The front-wheel-drive compact sedan has built its loyal following around quality, reliability, fuel efficiency and affordability for families on a budget or first-time buyers. The old 8-liter inline-four gets a few more horsepower for.
We will not talk about the exterior design of the new body for a long time. Before us is a new corporate style of a Japanese company, which we see not only on the Corolla, but also on the same Camry and Rav-4. We are watching a photo new Toyota Corolla from all angles below.

True to its economic heritage, it runs on standard 87-octane unleaded gasoline. As expected in a compact, acceleration takes a lot of effort, especially with the automatic transmission, but test drives find reasonably smooth and well-coordinated 5-speed guidance.
Specifications Toyota Corolla
Large tires are available as options. As you increase the size of the trim by increasing tire size, the ride becomes stiffer and harder. The new power steering evokes a sense of vagueness and softness, with both critics and owners complaining that it takes a lot of effort to get the car straightened out of a stop to accelerate. Owners find the lack of steering to be disappointing. Drivers note that braking feels very soft and spongy.
Salon Toyota Corolla not only increased by 10 centimeters, but also radically altered. Changed the front console, steering wheel, seats, finishing materials. In general, you will not find anything in common with the old version of the sedan.
Added soundproofing, five-layer acoustic windshield and vibration-controlled side windows contribute to a quiet, class-leading cab that receives rave reviews from critics and drivers alike. Although tall adults may feel a little cramped in the back, headroom remains ample for a compact averaging 38 inches. Many of the standard features on the top boards are available as options. However, these last two cannot be combined together.
Reviewers and owners report satisfactory cockpit layout and ergonomics, with simple and easy-to-read dials and knobs. Standard tilt and telescoping steering across all departments improves driver comfort, but some owners desire an optional driver's seat. Some owners find this disappointing, but not unexpected in an economy car.

Several owners have complained about the awkward placement of the clock, apart from the radio and closer to the front passenger. Standard in the lineup is two front side impact and side airbags for both rows, with active headrests that have improved whiplash protection. So, with the Korean generation of new generation Japanese and Czech cars still in them to dominate this segment? In the petrol range, all three cars offer automatic transmissions.
It also has the largest boot that can be expanded by folding down the rear seats. Sitting three in the back is not a problem in either of these cars. All three cars have touchscreen infotainment systems that can connect to just about every gadget you own and steering wheel buttons to control it. All three vehicles are equipped with their own unique set of skills. Each of them is suitable for a certain type of buyer's personality.
The trunk of the new Corolla small only 452 liters, a full-size spare wheel under the floor. In general, the average trunk for this class. If you fold the rear seats, then the practicality of the car increases many times over, especially convenient when transporting long things. The backrest folds 60/40.

Which car to rent: ground clearance
This means the vehicle has more space between its undercarriage and the ground, usually with slightly larger wheels than most interior vehicles. Mercenary car rental companies rarely include undercarriage damage insurance, so if this happens, you may be liable. While this is a relatively small risk, if you drive carefully, higher ground clearance helps mitigate this risk. If you're driving into Etosha, a car with the ride height raised will usually have higher seating positions, allowing you to see beyond the bush and possibly over other vehicles or obstacles for a better view of the game. However, many photographers claim that lower vantage points offer better photographic angles if you get close to the game.
- Regular car with lower ride height.
- Vehicle with higher ground clearance.
Specifications Toyota Corolla
In technical terms, the suspension of the new Corolla has the following parameters - front independent, spring type Mc Pherson, with anti-roll bar. Rear semi-independent, spring with shock absorbers. Front and rear disc brakes, 277 and 270 mm in size, respectively. The rear discs are not ventilated, the front discs are ventilated. Electronics and additional systems help to brake, including ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System), BAS (Brake Assist), EBD (Electronic Brakeforce Distribution).
This tends to provide more traction, which is especially valuable when you're riding on loose or slippery surfaces - such as mud, sand, or gravel. Visit our car rental groups page to learn more about the types of cars we offer for self drive trips in Namibia.
Which car to rent: manual or automatic?
This will give extra control in slippery conditions and flexibility in places where the gravel has been washed away. If you only have a license to drive an automatic car in your country, this is probably the only type of vehicle you can legally drive in Namibia.
Corolla transmission front-wheel drive, a choice of 6-speed manual transmission or stepless variator. As power units, the manufacturer installs on Russian version Corolla only gasoline engines. Three power units with a volume of 1.3, 1.6 and 1.8 liters have a VVT-i system (variable valve timing system). All engines are 4-cylinder in-line and have timing chain drive, which makes the operation of motors in our harsh country very trouble-free. The power of the motors is - 1.3 VVT-i 99 hp. (128 Nm), 1.6 VVT-i 122 hp (157 Nm) and 1.8 VVT-i 140 hp (173 Nm).
