So, let's get this right. You KNOW it hasn't failed for you, with "ricers for over 20 years without failure", but you want to know if it will fail on a 951?


Good question.

How boring is your life?

I meant to say exactly what I said, I you read the thread you would not have to ask. I don't have to tell you where you can stick your inaccurate, low IQ, and uncalled for opinion. One guy does not constitute a team or a university and we have many Championship teams, not only football. That being said, of course I don't condone or like the actions of Hernandez, guilty or not. He should be locked away for good if found guilty.

I am making this mod on my racer, wanted to thank those of you that contributed the necessary technical info!

I have one idea to add to the thread. I want to avoid mods to the alternator so it is easy to swap one at the track if I have to. Instead of drilling out the alternator I am going with a smaller diameter bolt and a bushing in the alternator bracket.

I know some people were asking a while back for more pictures. I am finally back from Thailand and have the engine bay pretty well torn apart this weekend. Therefore, I took a few pics to post here for people to get a good look at the finished product. I also have the real Nissan power connector installed as well as the Ice Shark harness.

Located some of the original files from the thread with the schematic. Should be helpful to those still wanted to perform this mod.

Eric, do you have any pictures of the bracket by itself after being cut down? Maybe something we could give to a machine shop along with a bracket to get that part of the job done?

Yes, I sent everything I had to Mahoney944, he is going to try to group everything together in a shorter post. Check out he recent post you will see the bracket with the U-grove cut into it.
