heys - as porimised - this is a quick no bullshit way of mounting the battery in the boot of a gt4 :
The basics of what youll need :
* Small sealed battery - Oddessy or similar ( i used a 12v800 unit)
* 1 battery box - Ill Leave this one to you to size up
* About 7 ish meters of welding cable - or very VERy heavy guage battery cable ( i used cigweld double insulated welding cable - its pretty blue , flexible , fine stranded , and cabable of holding 400 amps - tonnes for this job
* Lugs to suit your cable - so you can bolt it onto stuff - Asuto shops have these - solder or crimp on
* A roll of electrical tape
* battery terminal thingies - get one with an isolator - its handy!
* a length of pipe insulation , the stuiff they use on water pipe
* wire covers - that wrinknly stuff , thats split down the middle to cover wires in mass.
* Some sort of bolt down brace to mount battery into the battery box - i used 2 x 3/8 bolts , about 5 inches ling , with wingnuts , clamping down a piece of plate metal over the top of the battery
Ok - youll probably need other crud - but that should get you started !
Now the fun ..
