1990 AX Sport de Danemark

Salut les tous!

Je m'apelle Johan, je suis de Danemark et j'ai 23 ans. Je parle un peu francais parce que mon père a une maison à Lodève pres de Montpellier, mais c'est pas beaucoup et j'espère que c'est bien que j'ecris en anglais, c'est plus facile pour moi :)

I have had 2 ax's before, a gti and one sport (photos at the bottom).
But since I missed the sound and brutality of the sport I decided to buy one again :) In november I found a beautiful one on leboncoin.fr with 76000km placed in Angers and I chose to buy it - the car of my dreams :) So me and my friend went down to get it. It was in very good condition but the paint wasn't beautiful anymore so decided to give it a new paint at Citroen here in Denmark. Well, here are some pics, from when I bought it and how it is now :) (The car is 03ZL0898)

When we collected it:


Then a few pictures before I began working on the car:







Then the car was repainted and I was going to assemble it:








Then the finished car:














Then I began in the engine. I am a bit of a perfectionist so decided to buy some completely new weber dcom/dcoe 40 carburettors. I also bought some ram pipes and small filters. And at last a raceland 4-2-1 exhaust manifold. And then it all was adjusted to run perfectly:








Here are a few pics of my old cars:




Et c'est tous! :)

SUPERBES !!

Vraiment, mais alors vraiment, très très belles!!

Je suis admiratif

Mate ! I've just wet my pants !!!!


Truely beautiful cars, very nice job indeed, keep up the good work !
(When you'll have time, would you care to make a few videos with your Sport ? I just love the growl of those 2 webs ! Cheers !)

Thank you for the comments :) I am happy to be in here.

2005Pierric - I do not have a video camera but my dad has a good one I can borrow. Will make some video soon! :)

and at the level of the motor, at the renovation they is envisaged?
I saw that you have already changed carburetors as new, a somethings else of envisaging?

(pour Balet t'avais qu'à pas dormir au fond de la classe )

Anyway, as founder of this forum, I am really very happy to see you here! It seems to me well that you are the only member out of France inscribed even if I see for some time very often a visitor of Spain but who is not inscribed.

Thank you I hoping to see you often and for a long time here...

+1 pour l'modo!!

welcome, nice car!
the ax sport, the only the one

but now you have to paint the window and door (black) to be similary to a real ax sport!
tu dois peindre les entourages de portes et fenetres en noir

Y a juste un truc qui me surprend !! C est la courbe de puissance avec une Pmax atteinte a seuleument 6100 Tr/min !! Ton rupteur ne couperait pas trop tot ?

ZAZL - Sorry but I do not exactly know what you mean by "envisaged"?

Balet - It revs to 6800rpm as any other ax sport, but the Pmax is at 6153rpm which is normal. So that is only good :)
I am very happy with the 135,8nm. The engine is completely standard, only with a 4-2-1 and new carburettors.

(Je vais essayer en francais :) :
ZAZL - Pardon, mais je ne sais pas exactement que tu pense avec "envisaged" ?
Balet - Le Pmax est à 6153 tr/min mais naturellement le moteur peut "couper(?)" à 6800tr/min comme une autre ax sport. C'est normale, je crois. Je suis très content avec le nm à 135,8 tr/min aussi :) Je crois que c'est très bien dans un moteur standard.
J'espère que tu me comprend :)

The fellows things that you think to do soon on your car

Having grieved but I don't speak Dane, I can write in French if you prefer? or Spanish "tambien"

felicitation ,et bienvenue

Welcome on the forum,
Splendid all your cars, but I also prefere the circle of the window in black. :face:

ZAZL - ahh ok :) It's alright in english for me. Well, in the very near future (in may or june) the car will be lowered 40mm with Koni dampers and Cobra springs. But that is all for now. I would like to get more horsepower, maybe with a 1587ccm sometime. I was also thinking of a OMP gr. n ligne exhaust. Would you recommend it and do any of you have a video of an ax sport with an OMP gr. n exhaust on?

Thank you all for the comments :) As you can see on the first pics the car had black window surroundings at first but I just liked the white ones better :)

As far as I'm concerned (huge fan of 100% stock cars) don't swap ^^, the car is just in incredible condition, very neat... Would be sad to change anything on it (Damper change might be useful tho like you said)

PS: I thought the limiter was at 7200 rpm on AX Sports

+1, don't change your engine!
I've got the OMP exhaust (steel), it's very good but I recomanded you the ORECA's one stainless version (it doesn't have the intermediate silencer like OMP, it's a direct pipe)

Koni is not so good for sports applications, i recommanded you Bilstein B6 dampers (not the hard version of B6, too hard for ax, but the soft B6) or Viarouge with eibach springs (-25)

Now, let's do as you want :pirat:

I don't have money for engine work now so don't worry, nothing is going to be changed or swapped in the near future:) I have spent 8500€ on the car so far including the car, so the money is all gone :)
The limiter is on 6800 tr/min but it can easily be removed. Although I am not going to do it. I have already bought koni dampers and had them on my red ax gti, and they are ok, in my opinion. But I have heard a lot of good things about bilstein as well. Ok I will search the internet for ORECA then. Please let me know if you know a place that sells ORECA and can ship an exhaust to Denmark.

EDIT: I have found ORECAs website now :) I can see that oreca inox exhausts are much cheaper than omp gr. n. Does the exhaust fit well on the car?

pour les Bilstein , des B6TF risquent de découper la caisse au niveau des domes de suspension si ils ne sont pas renforcés . Ca arrive sur les Sax qui sont déja plus rigides que nos mamies !! D ou le B6 Normal , qui est déja bien raide niveau compression .


Oreca fabrque eux memes leur matos , d ou la marge en moins par rapport a OMP qui est distribué .

PS: Thanks for the videos =)
Apparently oreca's cheaper because they build their own stuff,

J'ai acheté une ligne oreca gr. n inox maintenant :) Je vais faire les videos quand elle a arrivé et monté.
