Long Story short ..

the GTR has been in the garage in storage and the battery finnaly died i need to know where i can replace it as i have found most battery shops don't have it ?

It's for a R34 GTR the one in the boot ... oh this is gonna be a pain in the ass to change lol

Location , NSW Canley heights area.

Pref somewhere close.

Head to auto bar or repco, and get yourself a $30 trickle charger, Great investment

Or take it to a mechanic and tell them to charge it, pain in the ass though becasue they wont leave it on over night.

Cant beat first option

^ been jumped 2-3 times already the car is a complete garage whore lol ,

i refuse to park my car in the public around this asian area as they all cannot drive or park for crap.

and yes battery completly dead as it doesn't even turn on from alarm anymore no cranking noise or anything from low battery.

Yea ok fair enough.

Just remove the rear strut brace, take the battery out, take it to supercheap and ask for one the same (size and specs etc)

Sh!t of a job, I had to do it shortly after getting my car as it was just out of storage.

There's about 10 in a 5km radius there.

I've only ever seen 2 34 GTRs in my lifetime there. had a white one that I couldn't stop eyeballing and a bayside blue that I will never forget with plates GDZLLA.

Lol so that's what you said on the phone today Long. Thought you said your car died, didn't hear the battery part. I was like WTF!?

the car is a complete garage whore lol

That's why you won't see it around lol

I came across a place at Smeaton Grange the other day that have a puck load of different batteries, I mention them cause they import Lithium batteries, more CCA and less then 1/3 the weight of a L/A battery and they take 5-10 mins to fully charge from dead depending on size, I am looking at one of these when I finally finish my 34

try battery world for it, and they have some thing called a "float charger" we use it on the bikes and it floats the charge up and down to simulate actual use while they are parked up through the winter

I've only ever seen 2 34 GTRs in my lifetime there. had a white one that I couldn't stop eyeballing and a bayside blue that I will never forget with plates GDZLLA.

Nice car, I almost bought it.

Nice car, I almost bought it.

confirmation of cc on battery anyone ?

I have CCA 380 on my Odyssey PC925.

As above, if you will be leaving your car for days at a time then a trickle charger is recommended.

    • Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in. 
    • I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
    • Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?
    • That'll be most likely down the road...  LOL  
    • a stock / option or aftermarket?
