Car Battery Type (what Cca?)

[webng]

Thinking of upgrading the battery that came with the car from Japan (no name, no idea what specs are) and was wondering what you guys are using in yours. Car is standard. I noticed the poles are very small, is that normal?

GS Yuasa NS70X from batteryworld is the one you want. Direct replacement, factory plastic shroud fits perfectly (except for knobs on top, easily cut) and plenty enough power.

i dropped in a bosch 600cca battery. its slightly longer then the standard car battery size but still fits in without hassle

its more power then i need, i know, but i got it at a great price, so it was either that one or a 400 and something cca battery for the same price.

No, on the contrary, this cheapo battery has done very well since i've had the car.

Will have a look at Battery World for the GS Yuasa NS70X, cheers.

Except in the pic of the terminals, looks like they are of the large variety? The terminals on mine are definitely smaller than that.

i would save my money if the battery is still in working order.

-ve terminal is about 16mm dia, +ve around 17mm dia.

I cross referenced from some japanese sites before I bought as well as getting battery world's advice...it is the factory replacement, unless you have different size terminals to this ?

I'll go have a look today if i can to check. The terminals on mine do look smaller i must say.
