Forum: 380 DB Series I - Series III

Hello everyone! I have (finally) taken possession of my absolutely gorgeous 2008 Platinum Edition 380. One of the things I want to do is put seat covers over it (seats look nice, but the gray patterned threading in the center of the seats is showing a bit of wear). I have encountered a...

Hey guys I recently Installed a double din headunit into my 380. Aircon has been working great always nice and cold usually sits on 21 - 23 as thats cold enough for me. However after the install of the headunit the aircon just blows hot air even though the temp is set at below 20 and the ac light...

Well, I washed our 380 yesterday. The poor thing has been kicked out of its carport space by our Santa Fe and my red Ralliart takes the other spot. As 380 owners would know, leaves and dirt accumulate around the boot strut attachment areas and there are several spots that are hard to clean there....

As said ive found a vr-x 380 2007 series 3, I have been lOoking for one since I sold my 97 veranda last year, I love the look and style of the car only problem is it has 150,000kms on the clock. It's going for $11,990 in wa, U guys think it's worth it?

I've just found that our 380's seat memory (GT model) is failing to store the seat position. The mechanism still gives 3 beeps when you hold one of the buttons down (to store the position) but then it will return to the previosly stored position when pressing the required button. It is unable to...

I have a set of Pedders lowered springs, struts and shocks available free to anyone who wants them. They have done about 50,000 km.

OK, so after having ALL engine oil seals, gaskets, spark plugs, timing belt replaced about 500kms ago with all oem parts to oem torque specs and a compression and leakdown check on the motor, Im 85% sure my timing belt tensioner is making a rattle sound upon start up It happens only when BONE...

Hi guys, first time poster (very useful forum to read). IN the aftermath of the Brisbane halistorm the other day, my wife found that our driver's side wing mirror was smashed by hail (we also have dome dents but it's not to bad, really, given what others have experienced). I have attached a pic of...

Thought I’d share a quick and easy mod which I think is pretty cool. Trawling across the U.S eBay site, I came across a flip-folding key shell for the Galant and Endeavour. It was only $15 so I decided to grab it. Two weeks later the shell arrived from Hong Kong. It cost me $4 to get the...

Hi guys I need to buy a new battery and unsure what kind to buy can u help me out

Hey Guys~! I'm just wondering, would the 380 GT tail lights or the VR-X tail lights fit into other mistubishi 380 models? Eg. 380 GT tail lights installed on a lx model, is it possible? Thanks~

My GT does not have either by the looks of it. I have found the part # for the carpet and clips but there is a few mentions of "the handle" to go with it. Does anybody have a part number for this? Also chasing a photo or 2 (or more) of the underside of a bootlid with the carpet and/or...

Hi All, As the title says, does anyone here know a tuner in Perth with Link ECU & Mits 380 experience (besides RPW)? I bought a supercharged 380 (running a Link Storm ECU) about 2 months back from interstate and I'm trying to get it registered in WA - I have approval for the mods from the WA...

Hey all, so after i killed my brakes i decided to machine the rotors and throw in some qfm ar1m pads in as there was still plenty of meat left on the discs (thank you hpx pads).... My previous set up was: Stock Rotors machined Bendix heavy duty pads all around Unknown green hi temp racing...

So after spending the last few days working on the wife's third gen, today I get in my 380 to go and get her a new distributor rotor. Turn the key in the 380 and all hell breaks loose. It seemed hard to turn over, and once running there is a loud metallic banging and it's only running on a few...

Hello all, Have a 2005 Mitsubishi 380 VRX with 170,000km on the clock. Had the car since new and have been very much happy with it. I had the cam belt done back in August 2011. Got a complete belt kit (Bosch brand) including tensioners fitted. A short time after this (coincidentally) I...

Suspension is feeling sloppy and loose, (200,000kms) I need to upgrade suspension, I will be going for a set of pedders coilovers...and its time for new bushes all around the car. I know super pro make bushes for the 380 but the range is very limited... 1. Anyone know where to get better...

Hey all, I recently rewired the car audio portion of my vehicle and I ran into a bit of a bummer. The ground and remote power of my amp shorted and not only does my head unit not turn on, the car dies after 2 seconds of running. Im thinking its a fuse thats blown, but I have no idea which...
