I think he means sealed vs. unsealed batteries.

If they're not sealed, they give off gas (hydrogen?) - in an enclosed space, it can be explosive.

IN THEORY... 33 owners should only use sealed batteries. But of course, sealed ones are expensive.

what u mean they are illegal in r33's...this coz they are boot mounted??? if they come standard with them shouldnt they be legal??

cheers...ben.

thats right illegal and dangerous , the ones that come from nissan are not sealed but they have a breather that goes under the boot , like jetski batteries bt here they intall normal batteries .

do you need to replace the mounting bracket, and clamps too?

just the top bracket you can use the old long bolts , i made my own top from stainless steel .

spot on! this is what i was refering to!

so these are fully sealed and no need for the breather hose??

thats correct craved , they are fully sealed , just like odysey no breather hose , you can mount them on their side if you wish no need to be mounted upright .

hang on a sec... you said fully sealed & NO breather hose...

so this IS a dry cell battery, right?

nice.. will definately save up for one! but will have to save for connectors too (joy of running 0 guage wire) how big is that bolt into each terminal?

its about 6mm , you can probably use the connectors that you hve on the cable now

its what they call a gell cell , just like odysey .

  • 5 months later...

A while ago i did a group buy on sealed batteries .

Some people have been asking me if i can get them again .

I made some enquiries and depending on interest i can get them but the price is slightly higher $ 140 each .

These batteries are totaly sealed and they are a copy of the oddessy 1200 but without the steel casing .

Anyone interested in a battery ( its a must to have a sealed battery if its the boot , like the 33's and 34 gtrs ) let me know and if i get at least 5 people i'll get then .

Pick up in Sydney .

Any more info on the batteries?

How many CCA's?

I need a reasonably good battery for my amps and subs.

How much would postage be to Melbourne, 3030.

If not too high then i'll take one.

Cheers

Greg

possibly interested, based on the details and performance of the battery as compared to the oddessy...

Its exactly the same battery as the odyssey 1200 ( odyssey say 1200 cca but thats not true , they are 1200 c.a not cca )

Go to the odyssey website and look at the 1200 cca .

Thre is some pics and a comparo with the 800 ca odysey , i dont have a 1200 here to compare it with .

Postage to melbourne would be about $20 .

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
