Forum: 380 DB Series I - Series III

Does anyone know what MMAL were working on for future updates on the 380 (series 4 +) I did hear of Stability Control (But no front passenger grab handle) and possibly curtain airbags. With the FG Falcon released shortly after the 380 demise, surely something was planned?

I stumbled across an engine Guru today that built my turbo Nissan weapon about 25 years ago & was talking about a rebuild on my 380 engine & he is keen to help out. I received an email from him tonight asking for engine info, some of which I know, some of which I don't. Just wondering if anyone...

So I happened to catch a story on Fifth Gear yesterday about some car that came with side-facing cameras, it looked like they were mounted at the top of the front bumper just in front of the front wheels. They showed the view from the in-car monitor and they gave a great view when pulling on to a...

G’day, I’ve only just joined these forums having just bought a 2007 380 SX Series III after much research to replace my beloved and now very hail damaged/written-off BA Fairmont. So far I’ve found the car a very agile ride and wanted to start work voiding the remaining factory warranty...

Hey guys, just a question about a 380 Im interested in getting. Firstly sunroof- anything to look out for? Leaks an issue? Also i thought the VRX had it printed on the front seats but this one doesnt...?? Also this car does not come with rwc but have dropped price in light of this. What am i in...

Hi guys, took SS Molt3n down to the local drags tonight and couldnt find a thread to post results. surely some others must have done some timed runs in 380s? anyway over my 8 runs my averages were 15.447 seconds 1.023 reaction time (spoiled by my first run which was 3.5 - first time at the...

Just having to replace the front rotors due to run out (warpage) and apparently DBA have superseded their straight slotted rotors in favour of a cross slotted (?) rotor that is not directional. It is also deemed to be a heat treated rotor that is better for heavy applications such as towing. I have...

Just curious has anybody found or fitted a high flow throttle body to a 380? I am thinking someone beginning with "F" lol

Hi everyone, Im new here and i was wondering if someone could possibly help me out. I was in a car accident on sat night involving my old 1992 bmw 325i i hit someone who cut in front of me, i was doing about 60km at the time of impact i had no where to go not even enough time to brake. I was very...

Hi Everyone. Firstly i apologise if this has been covered elsewhere, i had a quick look but couldnt find something similar. Went on a bit of a drive today to a near by town (bout 1 and 3/4 hours away) just for something to do. The weather was average, some small showers, lots of water on...

Hi all, First post so go easy on me! Couple of problems I'm having with my 380. 1. The light has died on my dash digital clock and I have no idea how to replace it. I've checked the fuse-box diagram and there doesn't appear to be a fuse 2. The driver seat seems to really squeak, and it...

Hey guys, I'm sure theres been many of times posted about this but I can't be bothered looking through. I am planning to tint the tail lights of my Series 2 and perhaps the head lights as well and are looking for some advice. I see VHT Niteshades is the most convenient method, however how do...

Hi Guys, for you chasing forced induction here is some other option than TMR Hi Marc We have excellent results from the Magna kit, these same results and better will be what we expect from the 380. The Raptor kit is the most powerful kit for the price in Australia for Mitsi V6 I have...

Hey people, Some time ago i emailed sprintex asking about superchargers and they didn't have any. But they forwarded my details to TMR, who have emailed me now asking if I want to install a supercharger. Apparently they're in talks with sprintex to do a "batch" of these... I told him i'd be...

Hi all, I must say i'm so happy to have found this site; my mechanic of many a year boss suggested i buy a 380, which i had previously completely overlooked, but now i'm absolutely smitten with. the big problem, as they say with the 380s, is that they made so little of them. hence, theres next...
