i have found some sealed batteries at a very good price . they are simillar to odyssey but don't have the steel case . i have priced the odyssey 1200 at about $330 . i had the 800 odyssey in the gtr but because i may leave it for 2-3 in the garage sometimes it was going flat ( tracker , alarm ).

anyway these batteries are $140 wholesale and they are the same sise as the odyssey 1200 , same specs as well so i put 1 in the gtr and its great . it fits in the original spot but you have to get another clamp from an auto shop and it doesn't come with posts just stainess steel bolts .

anyone interested you can pm me and i'll put you in touch with the guy that sells them , not sure if he will post interstate but i can find out .

i have taken a pic of it but my dg cam battery is flat so i'll put a pic up tomorrow .

I compared the specs of the battery to those of the odyssey 1200 and they appear to be almost identical in every way. Even the dimensions are the same.The only difference is the steel jacket on the odyssey.

I have attatched some pictures of the new battery alongside my old Odyssey 800 for comparison.

20x17x17 cm , it fits it the r33 but you need another bracket

Thank's... I had problem trying to get a Century doesnt' quite fit as the (+) cable terminal is a bit too short to reach the terminals on the battery :)

Also did u find out if there are any reseller for this in Victoria, and if not if it can be delivered interstate safely?

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
