Ok guys, looks like I may have struck up a deal w/Braille Auto Development

While chatting w/Blake(pphictyper) recently (about the drifting teg ) I began to discuss some of the products w/him. I informed him that I'm looking for a lightweight battery for my 97 Lude. (you Lude owners know that the battery is right behind the headlight...not such an ideal place.)

We began discussing pricing, and being the bargain shopper I am I began discussing a group buy option. Blake has ok'd the groupbuy on the following terms.

YOU MUST BE A HAN MEMBER

LIMITED TO 15 BUYERS, FIRST COME FIRST SERVE.

GROUP BUY PRICE: $115 shipped (w/in US, Canada will be extra.)

RETAIL PRICE: $157

The battery will include all the hardware (posts included) Honda Civic, Integra owners will need. The Accords, Preludes and s2k's may need something else. Those owners will receive the universal kit which will aid them installing the battery.

Here are some specs on the battery. (for further specs, and a comparo article for other batteries I have .pdf that can be emailed to you. Send an email to dsemailfosho@aol.com if interested.)

Size: 5.80 x 3.32 x 5.88

Weight: 11.5 lbs

Warranty: 1 year free replacement, covers automotive use.

Paypal will be the payment method.. once we have 15 confirmed buyers, I will provide the address for payment. Other payment options may be discussed, COD is extra, you are welcome to leave a post here, or IM me.

In the interest of keeping the mods happy here @ HAN, and to make my stay a beneficial one I am in no way financially profiting from this groupbuy. This in the interest of saving other members money.

 

Hmm. OK.

My ITR still has the OEM battery. It seems to be OK but after 70,000 miles or so, it's probably about to go, so...I'm in.

 

GK, j00 got mail

 

how is this battery in comparision with the OEM battery. i dont have a type R, but i would assume a similiar battery is on my GS. my car is a 1999 and am closing in on 70k.

can you email me the pdf also...thanks :thumbup:
