The Exide Extra ones are good... I bought a NS50 sized one for the front of the Falcon and it is beautiful. Cost me $180. In the rear I have a N70Z Century "Extra Heavy Duty 4WD something" that cost me $250 ($299rrp) and I think the Exide one is better.

AC Delco would be alright if you can get a trade price on one.... alot of OEM use them.

Otherwise your going next step up to a sealed Optima which are pricey. I think the top of the range Exides do the job just fine and last a long time.

Hey, i work at a battery shop in kalgoorlie, so i can't personally help you but my supplier is Goodchild enterprises

which is a battery wholesaler in perth, they're pretty good.

they're located in Jandakot but they have other stockists in perth so one should be close to you.

I'd suggest you get a bosh maintenance free,

i think its roughly a commodore size battery that you can fit in there so the part number should be 22FR530S3

that one has a 2 year warranty and its a calcium technology.

otherwise i'd suggest an optima 34 (redtop) or D34 - deepcycle (yellowtop)
