I had a yellow top that lasted me through 3 cars and over 12 years. I sold it with one of my cars. Those were the good ole days where they actually were decent.
ive got my early 2000's redtop it still sits at 12 but it gets alarmingly hot when in use, best battery ever, over 10 cars
Agree with all that has been said! My battery crapped out on my 2020 outback recently. Immediately put in a non-OEM brand. Optima to be specific. Couldn\u2019t be happier.
I have a 2014 brz and power wise the only thing I've changed is an optima red top battery when my orm battery died. It does have a out twice the cca as the stock battery so maybe it helps.
The nice people at Optima would love to hear from you.
I put in a Varta CP1254 A3, same form factor, similar enough specs.
UPDATE: I put in the bigger battery, it's great. The Cp1254 A4 gets me 1-2 hours extra use over the A3 and I believe even the original Z55H.
I replaced it with an Optima Yellow top battery. It lasted just shy of 3 years. Replaced it in July with another Yellow Top under warranty.
When I worked at the auto parts store, we warrantied a lot of Optima’s. I’d be careful before dropping money for one.
I personally don't care for optima.
I killed two of those, never buying again.
