Do these batteries require constant charging?

Or is driving the car 5 times a week good enough for no charging?

Note: car has alarm.

I havent read all 16 pages...just wondering apart from what you get from wrxhoon, what else would be needed to be purchased? Something about terminals? As far as i can see in the pic on page 1, it appears that your old terminals can directly bolt on...whats this thread thing that i glanced at somewhere?

I drive my car once every 1 week or 2 sometimes, battery is fine.

From memory just get the bigger terminals for them. When you get the battery you will know what you need. Think the stock ones work fine.

can you get hold of any other sizes? Interested in something like

Odyssey Drycell Battery - 265 CCA (170mm X 99mm X 175mm)

Sorry Duncan, not available , the others that i can get are little jetski batteries , not suitable for cars , they are to small.

Where can i buy the poles for this one? Any Oddessy distrubitor will do?

I bought this off a member that has no need for this anymore but he lost all the poles to screw into the batt.

Looks like you are in Melbourne so I don't know but if you have "battery world" there try them . Battery posts come in 2 sizes so you will need the smaller ones if you still have the stock terminals and they are hard to find. The bigger ones are aesy to find at most sealed battery retailers and they are brass.

make sure you get the alen key m6 bolts too because you won't be able to use your hex m6 bolts.

Thank you very much.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
