So I've had my 04 STi since July of 2003 and since I don't drive it much, the battery is starting to become juiceless. After about a week of not driving, starting up the car is getting scary, as the next place I drive to, the battery may not have enough juice to start the car up!

Just today when I went to start my car, I let everything sit so the fuel pumps could turn on, and then after a few really slow cranks, it turned on.

So, BAIC, where should I get a battery for an inexpensive price and what kind should I get? Or should I just get an OE replacement?

I fail the search.

 

optima red top =)

 

unless you have a huge power need, just go to sears, costco or napa and get a battery. save money & weight.

 

optima yellow top.. Why skimp on a battery when everything else on your car is baller... It's like $180 bucks.. Oh, and the reason I suggested the yellow top over the red top, is due to your stereo and amps.. It'll be better in the long run..

 

Yeah, I forgot to mention, two amps, 10" sub, and a DVD player in my car.

 

Yellow Top Optima then. It'll be running deep cycle. Red Top is for mainly start up.

 

definitely get the yellow top if you have amps!
