For young consumers, Honda Accord has always been popular. It is important to know that the tenth generation of Accord has only been on the market for the third anniversary, and the cumulative sales volume has exceeded 600,000. It is worth mentioning that the post-90s car owners accounted for more than 54%. So it's no wonder that the Accord, the mid-level car with the most modification, ranks among the best.
In the last period of time, GAC Honda’s new Accord was officially launched, with a price range of 169,800 to 259,800 yuan. As a mid-term facelift of the tenth-generation Accord, the new Accord has upgraded the exterior and interior details, and has also kept up with the current trend in terms of intelligence, and the sense of science and technology has been further strengthened. In addition, the new Accord, whether it is a fuel version or a hybrid version, has further strengthened the dynamic response, and the whole vehicle has a stronger sports atmosphere.
So what other basic upgrades can the Tenth Generation Accord do? The chassis part is undoubtedly the choice of most Accord owners, and this has always been one of the "soft underbelly" of Honda models. I believe many friends who play cars know that if the chassis is not solid enough, the body will be easily deformed and the interior will be squeezed to produce abnormal noise. Although deformation like
does not have much impact on the life of the vehicle, it will cause the chassis to lose its driving effect due to displacement. Especially for car owners who pursue sports and driving pleasure, chassis deformation is intolerable. So how should the chassis be upgraded? The following ten-generation Accord car owner’s approach is a good reference.
In order to make the chassis more solid and have a stronger sense of unity, this Honda Accord has been fully upgraded in terms of chassis.The owner chose Shite CIDEP's 6-piece chassis reinforcement set, which includes a front top bar, a front lower bottom tie rod, a front lower tiling bar, a rear lower left and right struts, and a rear lower bottom tie rod. The goal is to comprehensively strengthen the rigidity and strength of the chassis and make the chassis more textured.
former top bar
The first modification and upgrade is of course the front top bar. Friends who play cars know that in many sports-oriented models, the original factory will generally be equipped with a front roof. The function of the front top bar is to reduce the deformation between the tops of the towers during intense driving by connecting the tops of the towers on both sides, and effectively improve the directivity of the front wheels of the vehicle.
The top bar is not a simple piece of metal. Take this Accord modified Lion’s front top bar as an example. It is made of high-strength aluminum alloy and is formed by using four support columns inside the pole. The triangular structure is manufactured using multi-cavity extrusion and one-piece molding technology. It has good rigidity and toughness, guarantees strength and effectively controls weight, and complements the original Honda Accord's missing points.
Front bottom tie rod
For the front front drive, the heaviest part of the whole car in the chassis part is undoubtedly the front part of the car, which is also the most inertial part. When the vehicle enters a bend at high speed, due to the uneven lateral force on the wheels on both sides, this will cause the subframe ingot beam to be squeezed and affect the inclination and toe angle of the front wheels.
In order to improve this problem, the owner modified the lion special's front lower bottom tie rod to make the entire subframe form a closed loop, thereby reducing the deformation on both sides and making the control response more detailed.
Front lower structural plate
Compared with the vehicle chassis, the front and rear parts are strengthened to cope with the suspension.The middle part of the chassis is undoubtedly the weakest place, so some car manufacturers will install reinforcements in the chassis design, but most models will omit them due to cost considerations.
This tenth-generation Accord has been modified and upgraded specifically, and it is installed with the front lower structural panel of the Lion, which is what we commonly call the "Tic Tac Toe".
Lion’s front lower structural plate is also made of high-strength aluminum alloy. It connects the left and right sides of the middle of the chassis through a four-point connection, which can reinforce the weaker parts of the body against distortion. Let the chassis force to achieve a synergistic effect, and enhance the integrity of the chassis.
rear bottom tie rod
The rear of the chassis also cannot be ignored. In order to make the rear dynamic response more flexible and follow-up, the owner also modified and upgraded the Shite's rear bottom Bottom tie rod.
In addition to strengthening the middle and rear of the chassis, it is also directly connected to the rear subframe to form a closed frame frame. The high-strength aluminum alloy material can withstand stronger force transmission, and it can be reduced in extreme driving. The deformation of the suspension chassis has improved the tracking performance of the rear wheels.
rear left and right struts
The front position of the rear subframe has also been strengthened, and the owner upgraded the rear, lower left and right struts for this tenth-generation Accord. , So that the rear axle can "leverage" through the frame part, the strength is increased, and the response of the rear wheels becomes tighter.
After the chassis has been fully strengthened,If you want to further improve the basic control, you can also choose advanced modified parts, of which the front and rear anti-roll bar kits and the four-piece adjustable tie rod set (adjustable reinforced tilt angle and adjustable reinforced beam angle) are essential.
Anti-roll bar is an advanced component for adjusting the dynamics of the vehicle. It can effectively reduce the roll angle of the wheels on both sides, make the wheel directivity more clear when cornering at high speed, the body posture is more stable, and effectively improve the stability of driving and control. Safety performance.
The diameter of the front lower anti-roll bar for the tenth generation Accord reaches 28MM, and the rear lower anti-roll bar reaches 20MM. Compared with the original anti-roll bar, it is stronger and can bring a tighter response. .
brake master cylinder
In addition to the basic safety upgrade, there is also a chassis upgrade that is worthy of attention. Many car owners will notice that when we brake at full force, the brake master cylinder installed on the firewall will produce a certain degree of stroke deformation, which will affect the response time of the brake system.
In order to solve this problem, this tenth-generation Accord has been modified and upgraded with the CIDEP Shite brake master cylinder top. It can effectively avoid the firewall during gravity braking by “reinforcing” the installation position of the brake master cylinder. The deformation of the brakes makes the brake pedal feel more reliable, and at the same time, the brake confidence is stronger.
is written at the end: For many models today, when the power reaches a certain height, if the vehicle chassis is not strong enough or solid enough,Then it will directly affect the handling response and driving texture.
And the chassis is the basic part of the whole car. It is undoubtedly a cost-effective and effective work to spend thousands of dollars to fully strengthen the chassis. This is just like practicing Kungfu. Only by laying a solid foundation and sturdy steps can you practice upper-level Kungfu.
