GTA V6 Turbo Battery

Postby Wrightbr » Thu Dec 15, 2016 9:04 pm

Hi guys

Time for a new battery in my GTA V6 turbo as its not holding charge for long. Currently running a Vatra Blue D24 (62Ah and 480A). Had it for 12 years (on trickle charge) so its done well.

Looking for a new battery. Does anyone know a good source and a correct model for my car fitment wise and Amps etc similar to what I have?

Cheers

063 is standard fit
075 a good first upgrade but you'll need to flatten one edge of the battery tray. If it's already been done then may as well get the bigger one.

As long as the terminals and polarity are correct and the battery physically fits in the space a few extra amps won't hurt.
