Message	I had an OEM Nissan till 2009 then after it died I got a Optima Yellow Top. A few months (2012) ago after taking it out of hibernation it was dead (forgot to disconnect it) and couldn't recharge it. This wasn't the first time it died because the car sat there for over a month. Picked up an interstate battery because I needed to get to work. When I get around to installing a sub and amp I'm going to add a master kill switch under the engine so storage will be simpler (no tools). "The 300ZX Turbo is a dance; it's a song; it's rolling, roaring automotive art. There is no color that doesn't suit it. There is no mood-lifting chemical substance it can't replace." - Automobile Magazine
