Default I suck at electronics...which optima for GS-R???

I need a new battery for my GS-R and was told to buy a red top optima..this means nothing to me, and upon some research, I found there's a bunch of different red tops available, which will fit/work for a B18C1 swapped into an EG hatch? I have a decent stereo setup, 1x10w3 RF 250w...does it matter which one I get? Do they all fit?

Unless optima has created a new one recently, none of them fit. Try SVR, Lightning Audio. I think stinger has a new one for civics and tegs also.

...unless you relocate the battery.

ok, well in that case, could you offer some specific model info for those other companies, with some price ranges, if you know off hand? I wouldn't even know where to start looking. Thanks alot..

SVR 50-12(I think) too late to look up right now. wholesaleaudio.com sales it for 85. The lightning audio battery is like 150. I don't know about the stinger. I just recently saw it on their website.

For your system probably not. The deep cycle capability of these batteries is a good thing to have. Normal batteries do not like being drained. With 250 watts I would not worry about it, unless you find one for a good price.
