ok heres what you do go to http://www.mmsport.com.au/ or call VIC (03) 9553-4200 they will post up the battery. find the PHB-900 goes for $350 head to supercheap repco one of those and buy the pre-made leads heres a list everything I used

heres the best and reliable option with no probs

PHB-900 mmsport $350 pick-up

with the leads best to take old ones out as wont fit this battery and use to measure the new lead get about 150mm longer then standard you will cut them anyway

15019 supercheap battery lead $8.00

15021 supercheap battery lead $10.00

vn commodore battery clamp as battery is nearly 2 times bigger about $10.00

and new battery terminal clamps

steps taken

1. remove old battery

2. remove the whole negative lead

3. remove the whole positive lead from fuse area (pull of cover think 14mm socket be very carefull not to snap the bolt take it very easy I had to pull the whole fuse thingy out and get pliers and a socket)

4. get new positive cable put in vice and bend the terminal to 90 degress (use hanmmer if you need to)

5. assemble back onto the positive post and re-assemble

6. bolt negative onto top neg bolt in boot

7. place new battery into the battery tray (put old battery tie down rod in the back 1st)

8. tie down the battery tightly

9. cut the leads to length add terminal clamps

10. put poistive on first then the negative

heres a option if you have a alarm because the battery is a lil bit dearer than others let keeps it working well

I bought a charger that is hard wired to the battery

750ma battery fighter junior from bias boating . com (maybe) $59.95

two option aligator clips or hard wired you can charge it and leace it connected for ever will not harm the battery had mine charging since december goes into idle mode. gud luck

      Good tips, I like it! 😂😂 My wife is a LOT more frugal than me so it's only me we need to worry about! A splurge to her is buying 2 pairs of socks in one visit at Kmart!

      Haha, the appropriate response to the question "Is this new?" is "I've had this for a while.". With the unspoken small print that a while may be the time since this morning or five years ago   And to be fair I learned that from the best, i.e. my wife. Because it goes both ways.

      Yeah kids certainly add a whole another dimension to your life.  Life ceases to be about you and more about them for a while!  And I wouldn't have it any other way.  I love watching them play sport and make new friends along the way. Wow, sounds like your mate is a good guy to know!!!  He's got some serious toys in the toy box!  Yes it would be lovely to be able to do stuff to your car without getting all tied up in boring shit like how to pay for it!!  I would describe my spending style as "aggressively spontaneous and logical but regrettable purchasing"....  That will hopefully make no sense at all which would be appropriate given that is how I buy stuff.  I'll decide at the drop of a hat that I'm buying something expensive, research the living shit out of it for 2 days straight then go out and buy it.  Then I'll have instant buyers remorse for 2 days which generally passes by the time it turns up on the front step!  If I'm feeling ballsy sometimes I'll tell my wife.  Other times it just makes its way silently passed the house and out the back to the shed, never to be spoken of again...

      My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.

      I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
