My Tuned AE86 project

[thanhngo]

After all that trouble...I decided I need to relocate the alternator to exhaust side for more space.

Decided on trying a Daihatsu charade alternator (3.1kg vs 3.8kg) Not much weight saving there. 20v alternator is 5kgs. I just hope it will have enuf amps...i think its around 40-50amp range.


Started measuring and making template for alternator bracket:


Again wasted more time >< because I found this:


Its a SR20DE alternator bracket, but if you mount it upside down on the exhaust side, it bolts up perfectly.


Here is the plan with the alternator:


Need to shave 14.6mm off the front and .4mm off the back of the bracket and it should line up (according to my measurements). The bracket is really heavy so next will be to put it on a diet while I get it shaved.
