Forum: 380 DB Series I - Series III

So I read in a thread tonight about the Berklee BS065 Exhaust clashing if you have a tow bar. Anyone know if the Powerflow exhaust fits fine with a tow bar?

So Ive been looking at getting a Berklee Muffler for a few weeks and finally decided today Id get a muffler put on my car. Went to an Exhaust Shop and the guy told me that Berklee's were crap, needs replacing after 2 years and stuff. He then pushed the brand he stocks, Zetti. After having my...

Hi guys... i'm after the sizing of the stock front door mounted speakers, if anybody knows. I'm guessing that a 6-6.5" would be a good fit, but i'm just after some confirmation first. Cheers.

Hi, not sure if this has been covered or not before... Just wanting to know the wiring diagrams for the stock stereo loom. Planning on installing an alpine unit. Would they be the same as the 3rd gens at all? :confused: Umm theres 2 looms/plugs. A large and a small one. Would the small one...

well as the story goes im very keen to upgrade and had a dilemma of a sports car or another good reliable family car. i drove a 380GT when they were first released but wasnt wanting to buy one and forgot how what they were like. anyhoo ive looked into all the models and features etc, and...

wondering what sort of bits and pirces are available so far, im in 2 minds as what to buy, its either a low K WRX for over 20G or a 380 sx well below 20g with 10 000k ish on clock. while a rex would be just a dream, the 380's interior is far far superior and will have about 90grand less...

just curious how low 380's can go without problems? once again i am contemplating my xr6t, i was hoping after my new tunbe id enjoy the car a little more, sadly 310rw kw's and a 2800 stall convertor that is possible of making a very nigh 11second quarter mile doesnt make me happy at all:( ...

Myself and Arcane test drove a Manual 380 we both found this car to be very gutless and lacking the punch of our TJ VRX's 1st and 2nd gear were too short and the whole car felt nothing like the TJ powerwise. i didnt like the 380 at all and i dont think i will be purchasing one ever. having...

Just read the excellent 380 wrap-up in Wheels. It reminded me of the long writeup they did for the EA falcon back in 1988! Very indepth. Overall, this car looks the goods, but they will struggle IMHO because of the these points. 1. REAR-END STYLING. What were they thinking here, any old...

Hi, I've got my VRX booked in for its 36 month service tomorrow, it's well under in terms of km's though (around 33k from memory). Anyway, I receive some vague call from the dealership this morning saying they recommend that I also get the fuel injectors cleaned and air con checked or serviced...

Hi guys, I've just had my 380 windows tinted by Tint-a-Car and went for the midnight express option, which I think a number of other 380 owners on this site have done. I just have a question about the rear window, and specifically the area I think they call the dot matrix part, which is at...

Hi all, Today my 2006 380 VR-X took two goes to start, instead of the normal one. After I got it going and drove a few hundred metres, the orange engine warning light came on, and then as I started to accelerate it seemed like it was revving and unable to change gears, then it was ok again. I...

Hi guys, Never had a problem with the air con up until today. I turned it on, and fan ramped up for a second and then cut out. As I turn the air con on now I hear a faint noise that sounds like a puff of air, then nothing. As it is a hot day, on the display it shows the fan is trying to go...

Just had this delivered today. (hearts are about to bleed all over the 380 forum.) The good folk at Sprintex rang me last week and asked if I was interested....reluctantly I agreed.... It is the last one....packaged with the very latest series 5 unit. On the shelf it goes with all the...

A mate has o6-07 Platinum and it has 17 inch mags.The spare is a 16 inch steelie,is this normal?

Hi all, I have two questions for people, and they're pretty simple. 1) Is there an easy way to figure out if my second hand 380 has extractors? It appears to be relatively highly modded. 2) Because of its relatively high modding, I'm thinking its probably a members car. Does anyone know...

Hey all, I'm having an issue with my car. Surprise :p . When I go to accelerate, my car is OK until about 3.5k. Then it dies out for a bit, and throws a spaz before it starts to pull again. The CEL is on and flashes after the engine dies. Also, my Bluetooth ODB2 reader and Torque are happy to...

Anyone read today's Australian motoring section. Not a very good review of the new 380. First drive by a certain Phillip King. He seems not too impressed with the 380. He thinks its an alright car, with good aspects, but "Steering wheel feels cheap" "No reach adjustment for steering wheel,...

May be able to afford one soon. Brand new, https://www.carsales.com.au/pls/carsales/!goauto_content.dealer_vehicle?vehicle_id=2658462&current_rec=21&total_rec=21&sort_type=1&make_id=3&model_id=5100&state_id=7&search_distance=25 after 3200 klms and depreciation, ...
