Hi,

Needing a new Battery for my car and noticed that the original R34 GTR battery from Japan is still in the rear battery section, I have looked around at Autobahn, Super cheap for alternate batteries to no avail as they are either too High or terminals are too big..

The current battery measurements are Height 168mm, Width 130 mm and Length 186mm..

I've tried to put a normal battery in there which I ended changing the bracket as it was too short but then noticed the terminal cable lengths to be quite short due to the height of the new battery which was around 220mm.. :-(

Is there something other R34 GTR owners have put in as a straight plug-n-play solution or...?

Cheers,

Why are you looking for alternate batteries ? Do you live somewhere you cant get batteries :wacko:.

My battery was ordered through the RAA has "1350" on top cant tell the brand im guessing its exide or century - they cost about $153 Perfect fit

Im in Melbourne with multiple batt suppliers.. Almost all have listing for one battery which is too high..!

I've tried century, Exide with no luck.. Can you tell me what brand and model??

I Have tried almost all places as post suggests with no luck.. I've recently found Oddyssey PC680 which I'm looking into at the moment on there website..

I usually get Supercharge gold series, 3 year warranty, a good price for a good battery, never let me down, there warehouse in the next suburb and they will sell direct to the public :)

Optima D51R, off eBay would be around $230 ish delivered to your door step.

T1 = smaller terminals

Non T1 = standard terminals

R = reversed

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
