Yeah the 350 GT get the 8 Speed CVT Auto box,

Ours is only the "5" Speed Auto.

To anyone thinking of getting one, I cant express my pleasure of this car, best bang for you buck in terms of car for money.

Speak to Nigel if you are intrested in getting one, I am sure he can point you in the right direction

nigel at autowholesale?

I have the 350-GT which is sports pack being normal DIN unit (like ADM cars), dark trim, non electric seats, 3.5 motor and the 6 Speed Getrag box and it goes quite well, GT-8 is quicker bottom end but I like the feel of the manual.

Only manual in WA (as far as I know) and only a couple more in the country if that, in the US manual's are that rare guys convert them from Auto.

Manual 350 GT's are easily costing more on average if you can find them, in the last 3 months their has only been 3 PV35's with the six speed up at auction with two selling, they are about 30% more expensive for a manual compared to a GT-8 going on the last 3 months auction prices.

If they were cheaper their would be more in the country.

What year and model is yours Mike.

MarkR33,

Car looks a lot better in the flesh than Pics for some reason.

Insurance was done through Famous. Full Comp with Two nominated drivers, No claim bonus, Free windscreenn etc etc for $825.

HAHAH

True, it is an easy choice, for which one I want to drive, but Auto can be good for those lazy sunday mornings heading out for a coffee or for the paper.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
