Hi, my car has an sr20 swapped in, but the previous owner never did a battery relocation thing. so it runs on a very small lawn mower battery right now haha. But i was wondering if there was a powerful, tiny battery I could just put in there. Or should I get a relocation kit and get a normal battery? Thanks.

odyssey PC680 battery. one thing that sucks about these small batteries is that the cranking amp isnt that great. once its drain a few times they wont last that long.

Correct - there's a reason cars have bigger batteries - they are more robust, as well as having more CCA. Relocate and buy a cheap big battery rather than spending a fortune on a small one.

I used a Mazda Miata battery in my S14. No problems here
