battery
im looking to replace my old worn out battery for something new and was wondering what you guys liked
it needs to be 1. lightweight 2. not have the headlights flicker running around 650RMS watts 3. fit in my storage area where the back seat would be (i have a crx) any opinions are appreciated it will be relocated in space on #3 and i will be upgrading the ground wires what gauge should i use? |
i'd say optimum battery i use it and its good i havent had any problems.
advance auto parts sells them maybe a few others might |
My battery died recently, and a buddy of mine parting out his RSX gave me his Acura battery that was only 2 months old for $40. I love it! It is a little bit heavier though, but the same size.

well do you really care about a light weight battery or do you want a nice battery that will keep it from dimming?
IMO get a good battery is alot more important than trying to save a few pounds... you wanna save a few pounds go on a diet ;) or dont fill up your washer bottle as much or pull out your stereo. ive been using optima battery yellow tops and havent had very many problems at all. i had one go bad after about 5 years of abuse from being fully drained ALOT in my old trucks. they are not forever batteries like NONE ARE.. but for 5years and all the abuse i threw at it it held up great! as for extension wires.. at least 4gauge but 0gauge would be better. |
hey did you read my post i posted in the shocks for your car..... they will fit all you need is any 92-00 front forks the front shocks are bigger than the 88-91 models but will bolt up all the way around with no problem.
