    What is the recommended battery size for a 4AGE AE86? The one I had in the car when I bought it is 540CCA and is the same size as the Commodore/Falcon batteries. I look in the Century book and they recommend a skinny battery (also used in Lancer's, Corolla's etc.) which is only 300cca. Does anyone know the correct CCA?

    Cheers

    Have you heard any comments on Odyseey Batteries? I heard they don't like heat

    I have a 650CCA Odessey, I've never had any problems with heat but doesn't like to hold charge for longer than about 3 days without driving, and god forbid I leave the lights on.
    Odesseys are great for intial burst of amps (ie start up) but for continual drain...
    THEY SUCK ASS!
