z-32 alternators.. ? 80amp vs 90amp ?+
 

Well hey another failed componet on the z-32 has gone i did some looking around and found that z-1 does there non turbo engines with the twin turbo alternator becuase its a direct fitment.. 80amp = non turbo and 90 amp = twin turbo... but is there a place anywere in america that can rebuild to a larger amp alternator ? if any one knows please post a reply thanks ,

nismo619 damn this z-32 it costs alot to fix....:s-chainsaw:

Contact your local Alternator shop... just about every city in the USA has at least one.

You can also use the 140amp alternator from the Infinity I30. Only requires slight bracket modification that can be done with common tools (i.e. drill).

Pics are dead, but if you email the thread starter, I'm sure he still has copies.

I have thought that i would try an alternator shop hear in town monday i will let every one know how it goes down.. but unless they cant do an upgrade to like 120 amp then im gonna get a used twin turbo alternator...

... did you not read my response about the I30 alternator? 130amps and only requires you to a couple things like change the pulley and drill a new hole in the tensioning bracket.

If you end up needing a TT alt though, I have one for sale.

In my experiance with this car and alternators I have found one common truth:

Rebuild = waste of time and money.

These cars eat generic or rebuilt parts. It only took me 4 alternators to figure this out.

Take this advice foir what it's worth, I like Zlover's idea though.

EBAY

I got a used TT alternator off ebay for 30 dollars and it lasted me 2 years.

That was a pretty solid deal.

It may not be the same way for you, but it was more then worth it for me.

And for what you would pay for a rebuild, why not just buy the bigger alternator?
