Mazda RX8 Recommended Replacement Batteries
The following replacement batteries exceed the minimum AH and CCA specifications, fit in the holder and have the correct terminal arrangement for the RX-8. The lowest internet prices I could find are given.
Numax 005L - 60AH 525CCA - £46
Numax 088 - 68AH 505CCA - £61
VARTA ASIA dynamic 005L - 60AH 540CCA - £68

Note that the 70AH ones are slightly longer and heavier than the 60AH, which are the same size (but higher capacity) than battery fitted as standard.
