looks like a bike battery
Adrian, is that a Braille lightweight battery?
yeah, its like 11.5 lbs lol (literally)
Lol, funny how we mention it once over chat and I point it out immediatelty in the picture. Probably wouldn't of said anything otherwise.

I wish I could fix that front end. But I might just get another 7G and start over
It will be too much. Is vortex gen or egr visor. The egr visor is for a simple look. vortex gen is for a more agreassive look it goes with the evo wing. I think!!!!Quote:

Props at all cars and batteries last 2 pages.
Take it to a body shop and have them put it on the frame machine and fix it. I had to do that when I was barely tapped in the ass end.Quote:

just gonna be pricey. I still need to get a bumper, hood, crash bar, t-bar, radiator support and then have the shit painted
You just gotta ask yourself is this G worth it to YOU.
IMO yes.
Seems like some of you have never seen a slim battery. I know alot of Evo and DSM guys who use them to save space.
Yeah they are pretty cool and reduce weight and space and they are good if you need the battery moved over for an intake or something.Quote:

also on another note, people run small batteries to save space as mention above, But to shed a few pounds also. Remember all you need is for it to turn the motor over after that your alternator is running most of your electronics. (talking racing applications of course.)
I wouldn't run that slim battery alone for heavy lighting, audio and accesories.

Anyway, of course I don't have a system in the car and I don't listen to music with the car not running.
Quit inflating your ego thinking I'm always talking about you. ;)Quote:

No, some reason the lb symbol came out like that. What I meant with that was in some cases the Braille lightweight batteries can save you up to/as much as 50lbs. In our cars, you are right the original battery is actually fairly small, and likely weighs in around 30-40lbs. So, you saved yourself a very solid 25lbs, if not more. Great weight reduction for our cars! Good to hear it is running strong!Quote:
