So the battery on the celica im buying this saturday no longer holds a charge very well, so i need to buy a new one. I just wanted to know what your reccomendations are. I see that the optima is a fairly popular battery, but why shouldnt it be for the price (i know i know, you get what you pay for). Braille preformance batteries also intrigue me, but again, the price is up there.

Anyways, im not running anything super fancy. Im even on stock stereo (but do plan to upgrade my deck and speakers). So what do you guys think is a good value/reliable battery ?

Also, Any comments from someone who relocated their battery would be great. I saw the posts/how-to, but didnt see any comments about if the owner noticed a difference from the weight distribution (or were you just doing it to make more room in under your hood).

Time will tell that it is a mistake to replace the F-14 Tomcat with the F-18 Super Hornet as the carriers first line of defense.
