1991 Gtr R32 Battery question..?

[Billy_Jack]

Same day i got the battery i got Pulled over and given a ticket for not having a right hand drive sticker on my car, gunna have to do some research to fight that. Thought that law was abolished.

This sounds unlikely, why would anyone need a sticker to tell if its right hand drive?

I would definitely recommend everyone to purchase a battery tender / charger. This 2 AMP tender saves my battery upon yearly storage. Never had any issues with my battery since. Plugs into a regular socket and when fully charged, it trickles the charge to a minimum during the months of storage



when on sale it's $19.99:

If you go down to napa, they can almost match what you need but you won't get a red top there. They might have Interstate though.

As for storing, don't leave your battery there. Bring it in the garage (or house/basement, on wood blocks and either leave it there or trickle charge it all winter).

Optimas are problematic, go for a Braille or the Deka. Once you fully drain an Optima you can almost never bring it back to life (at least the red tops) they used to be good before they got bought up.

Ive drained my Red-Top at least 15 times during the 8 years Ive owned it. Trickle charge or even better Gell Cell charger. Maybe the newer models are suspect. Have it in my GTS-t, new hook ups and Optima spacer made it fit. Optima is owned by Interstate now.

Honestly Relocate your battery to the truck. I'm not even good an wiring and it was super easy.

Im replacing the battery for a customer. Damn catch can in front of battery is dictating the size of the battery. I continue to plead my case on the re-locate but he doesnt want to spend the extra money on a kit and my labour to install. I will try and convince him until I find a battery that fits.

any battery is good. even used. just chenge those terminals and you are ready to go..... 30 mins job
did it this week on my car! works well now!!! (i got a used battery off mazda MPV)

good Luck

p.s. not sure about fitment for r32 tho... you may need a smaller Acura Integra's battery (51)

I also just bought myself CTeK batter charger from he lordco auto show so just waiting for it to arrive and get a phone call from lordco! Optima battery is on sale and I've been reading up on reviews about them and it's been a big no no so looking for a alternate one, I guess I should relocate my battery aswell while I'm at it!

why do you guys like using massive batteries,
I dont think many members here drive their cars in winter or have huge pointless stereo system.
go slim.
