i have an r33 gtst, does anyone know if a gtr one will fit straight in. I know the stock gtst one is 80amp and a gtr one is 90amp and i know that the positive bolt post is a bit bigger, i think gtst is 6mm and a gtr one is 8mm so that wont be a problem for me but i need to know which GTR one will bolt straight in to my R33 GTST, an R32 GTR or R33 GTR or an R34 GTR one

a31/c33,32,33,c34 stagea will work, the 2 pin plug is the same, the ground hole might be a tad different nothing a drill cant fix and the positive terminal can be flipped and used the opposite way if you have tabs on each end (or just trimmed ), might also need a slight drill pending application

ebay says r31 fits r33./r32 so i'd figure so

test your alt by putting a multimeter probe on the positive terminal on the alternator and the other on the neg bat/jumper terminal to confirm its not wiring like mine was

Have you tried looking at higher amperage after market alternators or example as follows with current price description and where to buy;

Advance 130A for R33 to R34 / black case with red pulley $ 574.18 plus freight

or

RH9 hyper-alternator 130A for RB, SR , VG series Nissan engines / silver case with blue inserts & pulley $ 554.34 freight.

from www.rhdjapan.com

just quote for either alternator from Compatibility list the more info the better and they will match to car model & engine type eg; RB25det etc.

Just remember to run heavier battery cable or get auto electrician to check your current set up

thanks for the info, i do want to eventually get a big aftermarket one cos i do have alot of audio equipment sitting there waiting to put in and its all old school kicker stuff that requires alot of power inlike there newer class D stuff but just for the moment i want to put a gtr one in cos mine is not working properly i think. And yeah im going to run all new wiring even on this alternator so when i do get a big aftermarket one it will be ready to go straight in. I actually started a new thread about wiring upgrade, i want to just use 8 gauge for the positive and negative and use stinger terminals and not the crimp on style ones i mean the proper thick allen key type ones but im not sure how the terminals will fit cos they must sit correct cos its not like you can bend these type of terminals to fit

Yep, over the past few years, I've bought 2 S2 engines and an S1 from a crashed stock skyline that I bought for parts, and both S2's had 80amp alternators and the S1 had a 90amp.

I even did a search on this forum which told me pretty much the same.....

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
