its a genuine TRD kit, fitting by TRD Technocraft http://www.toyota-ttc.co.jp/english/trdasia.html Forgot to add, the MVP kit is supposly made by the same company TRD outsoruce the manufacture to. I dont know how true it is but I remember seeing it somewhere John(hodge) might know, looking through John's project thread of fitting his MVP kit, in comparison to mine it was near identicle wiht regards fitment/fixtures. I was surprsed to see his also had the ducting item as a seperate piece as in the TRD genuine kit; i presumed the replica's would just mould it to the bumper. MVP is the closest match I have seen so far,I am sure John can comment on OEM quality of the kit. I cant comment on knightracer, have not seen any detailed pics of it unfitted

Stop trying to put a damper on Odyssey Batteries PR marketing

My battery was re-located to the boot. The car is a lift back so I cannot use a normal Lead (wet) battery due to discharge from wet batteries Otherwise I would just the the Halfrauds and hide the label ha ha

2 years it says if it is around 25 degree temp, it talks how the storage life deteriarates with an increase in temp but I wonder if a decrease in temp will affect it too B) How long can the battery be stored? Refer to Figure 3 below. At 25°C (77ºF), these batteries can be stored for up to 2 years. The lower the temperature, the longer the storage time. The battery must be charged before storage. Roughly every 10°C (18°F) increase in temperature cuts storage time in half. If the temperature rises to 35°C (95°F) the battery may be stored for only 1 year before a recharge becomes necessary. Figure 3 will apply only if the battery is fully charged before storage.

Thats the mistake I made, so do you reckon leaving dis-connected in the car in winter temps or bring it in the house

Odyssey Xtreme Racing Batteries (Good read) -- they dont need a trickle charger for winter storage plus you can leave them in the car over the winter http://www.odysseybattery.com/documents/US-ODY-ER-OM-001_1008_rev.pdf The ODYSSEY® Extreme Racing™ battery does not lose its charged energy during cold storage temperatures, so there is no need to trickle or float charge during winter months. To store off-season, measure the battery voltage to make sure it is fully charged, 12.84 volts or greater; recharge if necessary. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent any applied electrical load during storage. The ODYSSEY Extreme Racing battery cannot freeze down to -40°C (-40°F), so it can be left in the vehicle. It can be stored for 2 years or more below 77°F.

I am in an appartment so I cant use my mains trickle charger, but during the winter i will take the battery out. I was thinking of the solar panel trickler charger to do me for the summer, save me taking the battery in/out
-
-
Anybody use a Solar panel trickle charger?
-
Thanks, it is some sort of plating on it, mirror effect. nasty thing, took it off , going to 3m Carbon Fiber wrap it but not too sure if the heat will take it off You see alot of the USA guys have the engine bay bling like this but its is probably more for a trailer queen if you want to keep it that way;just wondered how people manage the shinnesss
-
Awesome, how I would like to do mine. How do people find the shiny chrome , I had a slam panel done in chrome and it is a nightmare to keep clean, water marks. I was cleaning it each day plus it scratch really easy
-
I need one I can leave for long periods car only get use weekends and off the road during the winter. Get a deepcycle ? but I just bought the Ctek Trickle charger but I dont want to keep having to take the battery in and out. I want to leave the car idle for min two weeks and still be able to start it

My battery was re-located to the boot, I doubth it will last much longer. The car is a lift back so I cannot use a normal Lead (wet) battery due to discharge from wet batteries. Currently I have a red Top Optima (AGM Battery); Optima Part Number: 34R (8003-151) RedTop®; Battery; UNBOXED; Group 34R; Cold Crank Amps 800; Crank Amps 1000; Reserve Capacity 100; Ampere Hour 50; Top Terminal; L-10 in.; W-6 7/8 in.; H-7 13/16 in Any advise on what to go for, I am reading mixed reviews about Optima batteries, to be honest I dont want to have to shell out 300euro on a new Optima battery and it only last a few months.

Colonoscopy All the organs of the body were having a meeting, trying to decide who was the one in charge.. "I should be in charge," said the brain, "Because I run all the body's systems, so without me nothing would happen." "I should be in charge," said the blood, "Because I circulate oxygen all over so without me you'd all waste away." "I should be in charge," said the stomach," Because I process food and give all of you energy." "I should be in charge," said the legs, "because I carry the body wherever it needs to go." "I should be in charge," said the eyes, "Because I allow the body to see where it goes." "I should be in charge," said the rectum, "Because I'm responsible for waste removal." All the other body parts laughed at the rectum and insulted him, so in a huff, he shut down tight. Within a few days, the brain had a terrible headache, the stomach was bloated, the legs got wobbly, the eyes got watery, and the blood was toxic. They all decided that the rectum should be the boss The Moral of the story? Even though the others do all the work... The ass hole is usually in charge
