The main thing is the terminals. You need a "reverse" terminal battery. The leads are to short for the other way.

speak on battery's dying, after coming back from a 2 week business trip I came to start the car with no luck, battery was dead.
I changed it a few days back and everything back to normal, and the original Nissan battery was $hit to say the least, it was leaking battery acid all over the place when I came to change it out.
it did last 2 and half years so I'm not complaining that much

on my 4th year with my 07 OEM battery. should i be worried? been thinking it's probably ready to die soon given the age. thinking i should just replace it before i get stranded somewhere... any thoughts?
will autzone test be able to tell me if the battery should be replaced before it dies?

yeah, from experience OEM batteries usually last 3-4 years max so i think my battery could go any day now. I'll probably be proactive and have it replaced before it dies.

how is Nissan battery horrible?
I have a stock 2003 nissan battery, I only had to change it once in 2010. when my car takes a couple more seconds to start I had my battery checked by an electrician, said battery cells are about to go. so I change my battery and the guy at the service said wow a stock nissan battery lasted that long! and to think it was still running prety good, only because it took seconds longer to start I had it checked.

had my 60K service done today and was told my battery failed the charge test so i had it replaced with diehard gold. guess my gut feeling was right, 4 years on OEM, time to replace!
Big thanks to soundmike for the great DIY write-up on how to replace the battery. everything on the Infiniti is so much harder than regular cars with all the protective things all around, LoL!

I just changed my OEM Battery after 5 Yrs! It's mostly a weekend driver. But that pretty good for the Nissan OEM Battery! It never died on me, like after 2 weeks on sitting in the garage...it would sort of crank kinda slow...but then it started to crank even slower after only a week in the garage...so decided to change it out with a Yellow Top Optima. GUess I was one of the lucky ones to have my OEM Batt last as long. COuld have went more if I drove the car everyday... But never like take the chance so I changed it out.
