s1795so2 Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 I cannot afford to buy any more Kinetiks right now he already said that was out of the question, and he doesn't plan on keeping the car so it would kind of a waste of money to buy a nice battery like that. (not that optima's aren't nice in their own right) -Steven- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s1795so2 Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 an HO alt will cost more than another battery, and one Kinetik 1800 will be less than two yellow tops.... just goin by what the guy said, and the kinetic 1800 will prolly cost about the same shipped as the h/o alt especially since it weighs 54lbs, vs 15lbs at the most for the alt. I would also say it is easier to part ways w/ an optima than a kinetic, since they are nice and not as easy or convenient to buy. I can buy an optima battery at 6 different places w/in 20 minutes of my house right now and it is 8pm, tell me wher I can do that w/ a kinetic? -Steven- EDIT: I live in the country outside of town, if I lived in the city limits it would w/in 5 minutes for the 1st town and w/in 12 minutes for the second town. Also from my house and down the interstate about 20 miles there are 2 more places on top of that I can buy optimas from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dozier Posted March 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Sorry it has been soo long on the reply. I am in Thailand and coming back to Japan on Saturday. I will have to settle for an 1800 kinetik. I will also go ahead and order some 0/1 gauge at the same time. I will go from there. www.AlabamaDrift.com04 Silverado in the works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amalan Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 well i dont know if a kinetik 1800 will fit that car the kinetik 1400 is basically like an oem sized replacement for honda/mitsubishi and if you throw in an hc600 in the trunk you wont have any problems but i doubt itll be necessary. but if youre willing to modify the battery bay a bit then go for the 1800 its only 30 bucks more on ebay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dozier Posted April 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Ok. Where should I buy my Kinetik HC1800 at? I guess Ebay? Is that the cheapest place? I am in Japan soo. I am guessing online from somewhere. Unless someone has one laying around. Also, where to get a good 0/1 ga. wiring kit. They don't sell them here in Okinawa. www.AlabamaDrift.com04 Silverado in the works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dozier Posted April 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Good find man. I think I will buy the kinetik and 0 ga. kit from that guy. Thanks. Also, is it ok to build my box out of Oak? MDF is a little scarce around here. www.AlabamaDrift.com04 Silverado in the works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dozier Posted April 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Soo...Does anyone know if Oak for making a box is ok? www.AlabamaDrift.com04 Silverado in the works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 How about ricewood? J/K man! I've never seen a box made out of oak, so I wouldn't have a clue about it. Thinking about how hard it is, I don't see a real problem with it. It will probably just be stronger and heavier than one made out of MDF. 4 15" FI Q D2's in 12 cubes tuned to 32hz 1- T1000.1bd's 3 Maxx 29 deep cycles 4 runs of 1/0 gauge -Big 3 -Trunk sealed off from the cabin Custom 15.8 dual-volt switching MLA module All in a CAR.
