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)

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.

      https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
