This one took my eye cause it is black and a manual.

Paid $3000 for it at auction cause a wrecker wanted it and was bidding hard against me (not many manual 380's show up at auction)

Anyway she took around $3800 to get back on the road, a chassis rail was slightly bent and it had to go on the rack.

The dent was forward of the suspension turret, but had it done properly just in case of any test criteria like roadworthiness etc.

Here are the before and after photos.

The car also became the basis of my ECU prototype mule.

Have since fitted the supercharger from the GT etc.

here is a video of the finished product

She is all done, might just change the wheels on her, have a set of GTL wheels on the shelf.

needs lowering and i have a spare set of KONI shocks and springs....Hmmmm


anyway she is 200 at the wheels with the blower...non forged stock engine.

She has the second highest dyno result of any 380...200.8kw at the wheels.

She is also the only supercharged and intercooled 380 ever built.

Also has the RPW extractors for a bit of fun.

Very dignified result for a great car that was going to end up in the wrecking yard.

Just been talking to a guy in the US.

The Eclipse which has a 6G75 engine has a 6 speed gearbox that should bolt straight in to a 380....


Oooh...have asked him for a price to ship to Aus...why not...sounds like fun!
