Message	I just put one of these Odyssey batteries in my M3. It weighs just 25 lbs. vs. stock 52 lbs. Seems like an easy way to shed some pounds on the slightly nose-heavy Z, right? The only problem is you would need to do some work to mount it properly, but not a big deal. That and you can't run huge stereos. Anyway if I didn't live in such a cold climate I could've gotten a smaller model around 13 lbs. instead. That's some serious weight reduction. Anyway here is where I got mine (best prices I found): [ http://www.batterymart.com/battery.mv?c=odyssey ] company website: [ http://www.odysseyfactory.com/ ] "Keep the shiny side up!"
