Refinement of the Nissan Almera Classic is quite often hampered by the lack of parts that are needed for the job. However, you can use those modernization methods that do not require searching for original elements. These methods include chip tuning and external modifications of the car. Let's look at how to reflash the Almera engine ECU using the example of the Classic, g15, n15, n16 and h16 models released in 2014.
1 Chipping Almera using RS Chip – will the “miracle device” help with modernization?
Today, there are two most common ways to improve Nissan performance. The first is the installation of the so-called “miracle box” RS Chip, and the second is the replacement of software in the car’s engine ECU. Comparing these two methods of chip tuning, most experts are more inclined to the second option. It was the flashing that in practice showed itself to be the most effective method increase the power and dynamics of 2014 models. However, don't underestimate the RS Chip, and now we'll tell you why.
Nissan Almera
Nowadays, chip tuning by installing an RS Chip is quite popular among owners of expensive premium cars. As for drivers of the g15, n15, n16 and Classic models from Nissan, the opinions of car enthusiasts differ greatly. Some say that this method of improvement does not give any results, while others categorically disagree with this. In fact, both are right. The thing is that RS Chip is not suitable for chip tuning of all cars in general and model series Nissan in particular.
In practice, installing the RS Chip will give more effect to the n15 and n16 modifications released by Nissan in 2014. This is due to the design features of the control units of these models. Thus, the Bosch units that these Nissan modifications are equipped with do not have enough RAM. This significantly prevents car owners from performing chip tuning by replacing the software. All that remains is the RS Chip, which helps improve the car's performance without damaging the memory of the main unit.
The device must be installed on an engine that is in perfect condition. To do this, the n16 or n15 must undergo a complete engine diagnostics, replacement of filters, gaskets, and replacement motor oil. Only after this can you proceed directly to chip tuning. To connect the RS Chip, you need to open the trunk of the car and find the engine ECU under the wiper blades. On the panel located closer to the Almera engine, you need to find the OBD II connector to which the device will be connected.
RS Chip for connection
After you have connected the RS Chip, you need to check the motor. It is quite simple to understand that the performance of Almera systems has improved. The first sign is the sound of the engine of a 2014 car. Both in n15 and n16, the engine will work more aggressively and louder. This is especially noticeable in high gears. The operation of the Nissan exhaust system will also change - the car will begin to emit much more processed gases. Another a pleasant surprise– the dips when switching from second to third gear, which often bothered owners of the n16 model, will disappear.
IN total The power of the n15 engine after chip tuning will increase by 25%. In n16 this figure will reach almost 32%. Torque will increase by approximately 15 and 20% in n15 and n16 respectively. All these changes will allow Nissan to accelerate 2-3 seconds faster and move to the second hundred without twitching. Do not forget about improving the response of the gas pedal and stabilizing the suspension. Now your Almera will take corners and small obstacles much more confidently. The gas pedal will transmit your commands to the engine more clearly and quickly. Another pleasant change is the reduction in fuel consumption. N15 drivers will be able to save up to 1.5 liters of gasoline per 100 km, and n16 owners – up to 1 liter.

If RS Chip is ideal for chip tuning of n15 and n16 models, then its use will be absolutely useless for other Almera modifications. Thus, the Classic and g15 models, released in 2014, are best improved by the usual method, that is, by replacing the standard software of the motor control unit. The reason for this lies in the same RAM. These modifications are equipped with an ECU from Suzuki, which supplies its units with 512 MB of OP. They are more than enough to ensure stable operation even of a unit that has been reflashed several times.
ECU Nissan Almera
In order for it to be successful, you will need to tinker a little with finding the required firmware. The main requirement is that it must be downloaded only from the official Suzuki website, and not from other sites. Firstly, you don’t pay anything, since the utilities are freely available. Secondly, the company guarantees the quality and reliability of all its firmware. Second important nuance is the name of the utility. For the Classic model, released in 2014, you need to look for programs whose names have the ending OSM, and for chip tuning of g15 models you will need to download a program with the ending OMNK. Third important factor– the firmware must be in the form of a zip archive. This will make it easier to install.
Besides new program, to work you need to purchase a K-Line adapter, 2 USB adapters and the Chiploader program. Flashing must take place on a laptop with Windows XP installed. The algorithm for doing the work looks like this:
- open the hood of the car and pull out the ECU unit without disconnecting the wiring;
- connect one end of the K-Line adapter to the laptop, and the other to the OBD connector of the unit;
- install Chiploader and go to the folder with data about the machine block;
- find a file with the extension .pdf;
- open new firmware via zip archiver;
- indicate the final folder with the factory firmware;
- we set up the car using the Chiploader program;
- look at the expected result in the “Visualization” window;
- Click "Ok" and agree to the program warnings;
- Upon completion of the firmware, disconnect the K-Line adapter from the unit and put the ECU in place.
The chip tuning we performed will change Almera quite a lot. Firstly, the engine power under the hood of the Classic will increase by 33%, and in the g15 model - by 35%. This will have a positive effect on the dynamics - the car will pick up speed faster and keep it on a straight road better. Nissan's suspension will also be subject to changes - the Almera will corner more smoothly, and the lateral tilt will become significantly less. The operation of the electrical appliances of the 2014 car will also change slightly - now your Classic or G15 will not stall when the air conditioning is on. Also, provided that the original K-Line adapter is used, the Almera engine will warm up faster in the cold and cool down much longer.

Many drivers of Almera cars released by Nissan in 2014 complain about poor sound insulation in the rear of the car. Moreover, this applies not only to the budget Classic, but also to the more expensive g15, n15 and n16, released in 2014. We won’t find out why such a flaw was made. Let's take a closer look independent replacement standard sound insulation in the trunk of Almera using the example of the Classic model. Before you start replacing sound insulation, you need to decide on the material and purchase it. Many Nissan owners prefer to buy modern materials made from chemical components.
Sound insulation of car interior
Their main disadvantage can be called high cost and short service life. It is better to give preference to ordinary felt, which is much more reliable and at the same time cheaper.
After purchasing the material, you can begin disassembling the Almera trunk. There are several nuances here that depend on the model. For example, the Classic and g15 modifications, released in 2014, are equipped with an additional shelf, which must be removed extremely carefully. Models n15 and n16 have spare pockets on the sides of the trunk. To install soundproofing, you need to cut it to fit these pockets. After this, we will completely dismantle the standard firmware of your Nissan. As a result, only bare metal should stand in front of you. Next, if you have a Classic model, you need to clean the metal surface from the anti-corrosion coating. We treat the body with solvent and wait for it to dry.
At the next stage, we will need to take the necessary measurements of the Nissan trunk and transfer them to the felt. Try not to make too many pieces of felt, it is better if you cut out 3-5 middle pieces. Next, we install them in the Almera interior. In order for the material to stick, it is necessary to apply a thin layer of sealant to the dry metal. Without waiting for it to dry, carefully place the material. First, we attach the felt in the upper part of the Classic trunk. Hold the felt for 30 seconds, then release. Let's see if the material has completely bonded to the body. Where there are hanging pieces left, you can apply a little more sealant. Next, we install the material on the sides of the trunk. The installation algorithm is the same. At the end it remains to paste over bottom part trunk Classic.
After you have installed the felt, it needs to be pressed against the body. You can place heavy objects at the bottom of the trunk, and tightly glue several strips of masking tape at the top so that it covers both the material and the Almera body. We do the same on the sides of the Nissan trunk. The car should remain in this position for about a day until the felt completely adheres to the body. You can then install shelves and other accessories and continue using the machine.

The car from the Japanese automaker Nissan was produced and supplied to the domestic market from 2006 to 2013. The car was positioned as a budget front-wheel drive family sedan with a minimal set of comfortable options.
In terms of its dimensions at the time of production, the car belonged to the C class. By stock internal space Almera Classic was not a class leader and had mediocre characteristics - the car was only conditionally a 5-seater.
The main advantage of this machine is its excellent reliability and maintainability. Thanks to these “trump cards,” the car was in quite high demand throughout its production. Volume luggage compartment is 460 liters.
For the domestic market, the car was equipped with no alternative power unit with a volume of 1.6 liters and a power of 107 horsepower. This motor is a further development of the engine line dating back to the 90s. In terms of quality, it is not only not inferior to its competitors from renowned manufacturers, but often surpasses them. 
A huge advantage is the use of a chain instead of a timing belt, the service life of which is equal to the service life of all machines. The use of simple designs (the engine was not equipped with phase distribution systems, no modern innovations were used in it, which is partly a plus for daily use) and reliable technical solutions played a positive role on the engine life.
In practice, there are known cases of driving 300 - 350 thousand kilometers without carrying out overhaul. This engine has its own characteristics:
The engine has moderate fuel consumption.
According to the manufacturer, consumption in mixed cycle is 7 liters, but in real road conditions this figure is often at least 8-8.5 liters;
A power of 107 horsepower indicates the absence of high dynamic characteristics. Acceleration to 100 km per hour is achieved in 12.1 seconds, with this indicator the owner will have to maintain high revs engine to stay in heavy city traffic and effectively overtake on the highway;
A torque of 146 Newton meters is achieved at 3600 engine speeds. This indicator indicates good traction performance of the engine, which increases driving efficiency when driving in the city or towing trailers.

But this will help you understand how tuning a Nissan Navara is done, and what you can do first on your own.
Engine chip tuning is carried out by many car enthusiasts. This procedure is performed in order to increase the nominal power of the engine and reduce fuel consumption.
Changes are made to the design of the exhaust system and at the software level by flashing the software.
When carrying out chip tuning, owners are guided by two main tasks:
- Increased engine power. Initially, chip tuning was carried out precisely for this purpose. When performing this procedure, the rated power can be increased by 5-7%, which corresponds to 8-12 horsepower. However, not every driver is able to notice the improvements that have occurred. There are many programs on the market for flashing the engine control unit;
- Reducing gasoline consumption. By flashing the software. These changes consist of introducing certain changes into the fuel supply cycle (delaying and accelerating the supply of fuel to the combustion chamber, changing the compression ratio, and the environmental class of the car).
Changes occur not only at the program level.
To perform chip tuning, the neutral catalyst for exhaust gases and associated sensors must be dismantled.

This process occurs in several stages:
- Removing the catalyst (this part “chokes” the engine, delaying the flow of fuel and filtering exhaust gases to comply with environmental standards);
- Installing the so-called “spider” in place of the catalyst. It is a part made of metal alloys that helps improve the efficiency of vehicle production;
- Installation of plugs on oxygen and exhaust gas sensors. This procedure is performed to prevent engine errors.
The effect of chip tuning depends on the program, the quality of the parts and the experience of the repairmen.
The average price for chip tuning is about 3,000 – 5,000 rubles.
Wheel rims
To tune wheels, many owners resort to purchasing a new set. The manufacturer's allowed diameter rims in 14 and 15 inches. 
Due to the prevalence of the model, the choice of disks is huge.
Wheel rims for this model differ in several types:
The cost of a unit starts from 1500 rubles.
The price per unit is also affordable, starting at 2,500 rubles.
- Forged wheels. Rare to use, but also the highest quality tuning option. In terms of strength, they surpass all other competitors.
The cost starts from 3500 rubles per piece.
Headlights
The most common way to tune headlights is to replace headlight bulbs. 
Popular lamps to replace are:
Xenon lamps. They are much brighter than their halogen counterparts; the cost can reach 1000 rubles per piece: 
Bi-xenon lamps. They are a lamp unit that requires dismantling the entire headlight and opening its housing.
On photo tuning Nissan Almera classic:
This procedure involves removing the headlight. The cost of a block starts from 2500 rubles.
- By snapping off the body clips and dismantling the block.
- Then, by heating the headlight housing (an industrial hair dryer is best), the mirror housing is detached).
- After this, the standard head lighting is replaced with a bi-xenon unit. In some cases, owners paint the reflective element black, which gives the appearance additional aggressiveness.
Bumper
There are many models of unusual bumpers for tuning on the market.
The cost of the kit starts from 3000-4000 rubles. 
For the work you need:
- Dismantle the factory part.
- The standard bumper is attached using plastic clips and several screws around the perimeter;
- Then, after dismantling, the new element is attached to its original place in the reverse order (in best case scenario when purchasing a high-quality part, all parameters will be identical, but if the part does not fit, you will have to refine the roughness using a tool)

Salon
The most common type of interior tuning is the purchase of covers for this model.
Types of cases:
Fabric covers. The most common type of covers. Depending on the manufacturer and cost, the service life is 3-4 years. The number of designs and formats is practically unlimited. The cost for this model starts from 1500 rubles. Installation occurs by pulling fabric covers over the back and pillow; usually no additional fastenings are provided; 
Cases made of genuine leather. The rarest and most expensive type of car covers. The cost starts from 10,000 rubles. Installation is carried out in a special studio and is essentially reupholstery of the seats. They surpass all competitors in their durability; 
Eco leather cases. They are the “golden mean” between expensive models made of genuine leather and ordinary fabric products. They have most of the qualities of leather products, but are much inferior in durability (1-3 years) and quality of material. The set is valued at 5,000 rubles.
Owners of modern cars often want to increase protection and improve the appearance of their cars. This is caused by objective factors. Automakers focus on the functionality and reliability of components and assemblies and take measures to increase the body's resistance to corrosion. However, any scratch in certain situations will lead to rust. Therefore, tuning and accessories for Nissan Almera 2015-2016 are aimed at protecting against scratches. Stainless steel door sill covers protect the lower parts of the body doorways from damage by shoes when the driver and passengers are getting in or out of the cabin.
In winter, roads are covered with anti-icing agents, which cannot harm car varnish, but corrode paint and metal. Another type of accessories for tuning Nissan Almera 2014-2017 is stainless steel radiator grilles. There are often situations on the roads when a stone thrown from under the wheels of another car pierces the plastic radiator grille and damages the cooling system. In our store you can buy such an accessory for tuning Nissan Almera as a stainless steel radiator grille. Thanks to its high strength, it can withstand impacts and effectively protect the cooling system.
