Does anyone have the exact measurements of this battery. I have made a few mods and have very limited space...

Thanks

Great Product. Barely fits into my battery tray, but i'm just so happy how it slots in. wrxhoon is a great help. Organised the terminals for me without any hassle. Kept in contact throughout the process. Thanks for being so professional.

I think this is a great 'investment' as far as any 'investment' goes on a perpetually money sucking fiend that is my car =P

do u know if they will fit 180sx's??

I know people have fitted them in 180's but I don't know what they have done to fit them in .

The measurements are there , take a tape and measure to see if they will fit.

my car is a 180sx. I just put it in sideways, and it just slotted in. But it can fit in normal way, just need a bracket for it from autobarn or something. Big enough room for cooler piping through the tray (though I advise against that). Got to find a bigger battery bracket for it though.

Add me to the list of satisfied customers of this battery for an R33 GTR. Bought it from wrxhoon a month ago, installed it by turning the post connector sideways and screwing down the neck. Installation took a little longer than expected, had to remove the rear strut tower brace, and the backplate that bolts on the chassis because the battery was JUST too big for the gap (1cm too big). Also needed a $5 7 inch battery bracket from Autobarn. Other than that, it's been working great. Starts up easily after a week of not using it (with alarm draining it).

Also wrxhoon was great to deal with, no dramas at all.

Thanks wrxhoon! :)

O.K guys looks like there are a few of you that may want batteries .

I can get these at anytime as long as I order 5 at the time. All of you that want one please post here or P.M and I'll see what I can do for you. Price is still the same $140 pick up in Sydney ( or even meet up somewhere). For interstaters extra $20 for post in the eastern states and S.A. , W.A. and N.T. around $40 .

I'm looking to change my battery (R32 GTR). Please let me know if these batteries are still available? I should be able to pick up from Sydney.

i need one for a r33 please got any pics on how it is connected up please.

cheers

Have a look in the thread mate and you will see how others have installed it .

It will fit in the same place your battery is now but because its a bigger ( wider ) battery you need a new 7" braket ( your car has a 5" bracket) and you need to discard your battery tray .

I have one in my R34 GTR but to take a pic I have to strip the car boot .

Cheers , Jerry

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
