I installed a new starter battery. The old one was getting pretty weak. Whenever I start the car in the morning the radio turns off. I guess the battery doesn't have enough power to run the radio and the starter. So the radio is sacrificed. I've been using these 18 Amp Hr SLA batteries for about 8 years now and they work great here in Florida. They only last a couple years but they only cost about 38 bucks. And they're a lot lighter and compact than the OEM battery. Plus I have the Phantom ESC so I need 3 of these and 2 9 Amp batteries.
Now I need to break out the manual so I can reset the radio, clock, shift light, gear indicator, rev indicator and buzzer. (even though the car is so loud you can't hear the buzzer)
