Anybody still making a stock location battery tray?
Hey guys. I like to pop in here every once in a while when I get the car in shape for a few days. Just bought a new battery R51 size or whatever the Honda size is little battery. I have the M2 Med intercooler so I run the little battery but it slides around on the stock battery tray. Is there one made currently?
Thanks.

This is about 10 years ago, and here in Australia, but I bought that smaller sized stock mount battery tray for my SP race car in carbon fiber from these guys:

Pollard Products Pty Ltd

They actually made the carbon fiber parts under factory contract for Mazda Australia, who produced the legendary FD RX-7 SP cars in Australia (you did not see/hear about/get any SP FD RX-7s in the United States)

Ian Pollard is the guy to talk to. I run a lot of these carbon SP parts in my daily driver 1992 JDM auto car. The carbon is factory grade and world class.

Turbojeff is the man to talk to - PM him. He has made VERY nice stainless steel battery trays in the past that use the 51R battery.
