any battery that fits and looks decent quality will do the job.

lead acid batteries are NOT sold flat, being flat is the number one thing that will KILL a lead acid battery (it's called sulfation, and it kills them fast). car batteries are always sold close to fully charged. you should keep them this way, if you let a battery go flat for a couple of days it is cactus.

The right battery will be listed in the suppliers catalogue. There a number of things to look out for..Terminal size, battery case size, battery capacity (CCA-Cold cranking amps), Style of fitting, etc...So it is important you get the right one...

Your paying good money for it so why not choose carefully and be happy with it?

    • I love the undertray, especially the flappy bit for easier access for serving I'm thinking of fabing up one at work for the MX5 while I still have access to the metal shop at work with a guillotine and press brake Whilst removing the plastic undertray on the MX5 isn't to hard, I love the idea of a 2 bolt flap as opposed to removing the whole thing 
    • Great thank you for that. Yeah that is the bumper and spoiler it still has i just hadn't heard of it being referred to as a aero form bumper before. Really appreciate your help.
    • A little progress; I took the opportunity of an oil change to take a sample for oil analysis, will be interesting to see how it was treated for its first 125,000klm (I know how it has been treated since :rofl:) I went with 5w40 and will see what that does for oil pressure at higher revs. Also fitted the Z1 front undertray....a little more sturdy than the plastic factory one (although I suspect it won't stop a tree stump ) Nicest thing about it really is the 2 bolt "service panel"....a gift to the oil changer compared to removing 14 bolts holding the factory tray.
    • I think a scissor lift is better/faster in most cases, but I guess it does obstruct access to the centre of the car? BTW I weighed the quick jack. 3.5 tonne model is 50kg for each side. So yes, portable, but not with one finger
    • Not a huge update because still waiting for some fittings for the intake. But I did corner weigh the car, its enough to make a GTR driver cry at 1163kg (race ready except no fuel)  Sorry about the terrible pics but I think they are readable With 70kg driver
