As per the topic, I'm needing a new battery as I've had a few problems with the one that's in there now. So I was wondering instead of just wandering out and buying whatever fits, do any oy you R33 owners have anything you can reccomend to me as a decent battery, cause I've had enough of the crappy thing that's in there atm. Cheers :thumbsup:

just a quick pointer....you sure its not your altinator? coz i thought i had a bad battery in my old car and i replaced it only to have the new battery to die. I hope it is your battery coz they are f**king expensive.

you sure its not your altinator?

Hmm... The car started after work. Made the sound that trying to start on a near dead battery (that kind of high pitched whirry noise) then turned over. I tried it another couple of times since i was all "WTF?" and it started no problems. Anyone have any idea what this could be? Alternator? Mechanically, I know bugger all. There have been another couple of instances in the past where the car didn't turn over properly (but not like it was a flat, just made that whirring noise then started on the next try) so now I'm fearing the worst :)

The dry cell ones are awesome, however for the price i wouldnt bother.

I just got a run of the mill one from autobarn, there's one that suits the R33, its in the booklet thingo there...

yuup did the same, working a treat, although dont have any heffty strains (woofers) on it, so it depends on what the battery will be driving in the long run :)

If it is just the battery theres a wholesale place over in Queanbeyan (on Uriara) he just searches up on his database whats available for the make, model and year, walks into his factory and comes back with the battery for about 30% cheaper then youd be expecting at battery world

Check that the alternator is charging and also put a booster pack on and see if it still does it as it could be a starter or ring gear problem. If it is a battery then all i can suggest is you buy the one that has the most CCA which is cold crank amps, as i looked into the oddysey batterys and i found that they had lees CCA than some of the others. AGM or dry cell are excellant but pricey.

    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D
