    Battery

    This is my first post here and I hope somebody could help me ...

    Battery is finally dead on my R33 GTST, I took out the original and it is a small battery and noticed that the terminals are different too.

    Anyone know where I can get a new battery for it ??

    Thanks

    Get a North American battery (people usually go with Optima) and change the terminals.

    You can get terminals at crappy tire for cheap.

    Thanks You DarkCaporaL

    Couldn't I just squeeze it with its old terminals which will make it wider or something ?

    For about 15$ or less, you'll have a nice setting that won't break, 10 minutes and it's done.

    I just bent the stock terminals open a little so they just fit, stuck a screw driver through the holes and then bent it over, got some bolts and clamped it on, took me 5 minutes.

    Sorry, I'm supposed to be 24 now but i still act 8. What do you guys mean flip the terminals around? My car came with a costco special kirkland battery, did someone have to screw with the terminals on it or something?
