Lol....S13eater....always one who know's better :P
And I went for the smaller battery option in the S13, purely becasue it was easier. But it is cheaper aswell, which is always a bonus. I think pretty much all parts places can translate the 005L battery number into their own part numbers. It's commonly recognised. I can't remember off of the top of my head whether the battery terminals are the same way round in the S12, and S13. If they are not (or at any-rate) make sure that the battery you get has the terminals the correct way around. If it's not 005L for the S12, then it'll be 005R

Read around a few forums, This battery was recommended from a guy who cut a hole in the S13 battery tray for intercooler piping. It is 12V 40ah 330 CCA. Has this battery got enough Grunt for a DET and what would be recommended.
Length: 187 mm Width: 127 mm Height: 227 mm 054 Battery  This is the MX5 Battery I found, It is 12V 45ah 350 CCA Length: 234 mm Width: 128 mm Height: 220 mm 048 Battery  Also some batteries quote CCA with (SAE) what is this  ???And some are GEL and others ACID,,, Whats the Difference ???This is becoming a minefield LOL  .

Found a small race battery on eBay with this spec:
PERFORMANCE @ 25°C: Voltage - 12v Capacity - 20Ah Cranking current* - approx 680Amps(5 secs) Will this be ok for the DET? Pricing the wire up etc to put it in the boot is a fortune, unless someone knows anywhere cheap for this kind of stuff

That 054 will be fine, dimensions sound like around and about the right size aswell.
As for the spec of the one above that should be fine although 20Ah Capacity is rather small. Although shouldn't make too much difference so long as you don't sit in "Maccy D's" of a night time with your "tunes" blaring :P Out of interest how much is the battery off of Ebay? (If you can put that on here without getting crucified!)
