if your into systems and bling though, dont listen to a word i said.

Re: Battery (thisisntjared)
Yeah, I looked on your carweb site and saw no engine bay pics.
Nice car though. I like 'em clean looking like that. Plus, my first EG Si was that color. The EG Si I have now is black, nice but not as pretty of a paint job. It'll soon be going to MACCO to get a cheapie paint job and clean up.

you can go to the home appliance section, take a scale to the automotive section, then weigh each of the batteries even. it just takes a little fudging with the terminals if you get something thats not designed for a car.
there is no need for race batteries or the optima/hawker whatever. those things cost 3x the amount and do the same exact thing.
scuzz: thanks for the compliments on the car i try, but i definitely wish my hatch was black....
