Post subject:  Citroen ZX Dakar from Brazil !!!
hello folks! I am a proudly owner of a Citroen ZX 2.0 16V "Dakar" model. Maybe only in Brazil exist this version, in other countries the name changes, I guess. The car have the XU10J4RS engine, in Brazil the other car which uses this engine is the Xsara VTS N6 model and some rare Peugeot 306 GTi-6 cars. Pix here:

I bought the car in May of this year, and have made some fix like the some parts of suspension, changed the head gasket, and made a simple revision of the car. The old owner lost the wheel arches and it´s very difficult to find in Brazil, the cost is very expensive.

It´s very difficult to find some related infos of this car, I hope find some interesting info here :)
In Brazil we have a forum about PSA cars called Citroen Motorsport www.citroenmotorsport.com.br and have PSA Maniacos www.psamaniacos.com.br

sorry for my poor English ;)

hi, thanks Joske! the engine is not too exclusive, it´s a XU10J4RS that it found in Xsara VTS N6 model and Peugeot 306 GTi-6. The more attractive is the 168 bhp @ 6500rpm power output. and is totally stock, I am searching for infos to enhance the performance without turbocharging the engine...

Thank you, ZX-Cruiser! There are very interesting spots in the principal site that I cannot understand :(

maybe in English the ZX16V.net will become more accessible for everyone! in Brazil we don´t have a long database with infos about the Citroen ZX :(

humm, a question: what is the model in your coutries that is equal to my car? I saw in another topic a Citroen ZX GTi that is equal to mey "Dakar"...

We have two types of 16V's. The first one is 150-155Hp XU10J4RFY with 150-155Hp which was sold between 1992 and 1995. There is also a newer type with the same XU10J4RS engine that you have, that was sold from '96 untill '98. Those are quite rare, there are far more tyoe 1's in Holland.

here in Brazil we have two types of Citroen ZX 2.0 16V: one called "Coupe" which uses the XU10J4D/Z engine with 155hp. And the "Dakar" with the XU10J4RS. The Coupe was sold from 1992 to 1998 (to confirm) and the Dakar only have 1996 and 1997 models.

it's rare to see ZX Dakar in Brazil, in some states there are only one car! it's more common to see other ZX's, like Furio and Volcane models... :)

we, owners of Citroen ZX 2.0 16V, are the lucky ones :D

Even we're lucky here in the Netherlands, even though I think there are at least 50 in our small country.
