Patrick, it's funny this post happened. I was just talking to a friend in Brisbane last night! You Auzzies run in packs!
Also, Hey David! Hope all is well with you and yours!

Hey eniac... hopefully you're still watching this thread. Are you still seeing consistent 13.8v on your car? Even when hot and in traffic?

I'm chasing a low voltage issue with the Nissan alternator. Seems at least one other person has the same problem (refresh951). In reading through this thread again, I came across your statement quoted above.

(My low voltage issue is here: https://rennlist.com/forums/944-turb...l#post10428305)

What was your reasoning behind using the Bosch pulley? Was it just to avoid using a 5-rib pulley? And how do you mean it's "smaller"? Is it a smaller diameter? (EDIT: I see you said you wanted the Bosch one for the 6th rib... any other reasons? https://rennlist.com/forums/6896240-post65.html)

My Nissan alternator had a 6-rib pulley installed before it was shipped to me. I'm wondering if, perhaps, I'm under-driving it. If you're seeing a consistent 13.8v (compared to my 12.5 or less).... then I'm wondering what's different between my car and yours. The pulley is definitely one difference.

I've searched the thread and can't seem to local the Nissan connector link or part number. Can someone chime in with that info or point me to the post?

Thanks!

I am on the phone now, so can't search easily. The part number and location to buy is in this thread. It is how I bought mine.

I have a ready to bolt on one wire Mini Nippondenso alternator and A/C delete bracket for sale. Total weight is 8.75 lbs, including brackets! Output is 50/30 amps, max/idle. I removed this from a friends 951 race car I parted a few years ago, alternator new cost $262 alone and has only two to three race weekends of use. $250 + ship Conus.

Awesome, thanks! I scanned and searched the thread three times... not sure how I missed that

My eBay alternator and alternatorparts.com harness connector arrived:




Now I suppose I should find some time to put my motor back together and shoehorn it back into the car! It's getting a bit dusty...

Can you buy this alternator already modified so it just bolts in?

Welll...ya know...If ya quit wasting so much time driving your mega RC cars and get your *** busy on the real one...

Have you read this thread?

Just curious as to an update from people who actually drive their cars, unfortunately mine don't count, as to any failures of this Nissan alternator? I kind of doubt it as I have this same alternator on two of my other turbo ricers for over 20 years without failure.

What he meant to say was, "not exactly." But he's a Gaytor and the stars of his Championship Teams" either suck, or are about to do so...IN PRISON!

So no. Not just a bolt in.../which is what he meant to say.
