Hi all I'm doing a production run of alternator mounting kits to fit 140a alternators to RB engines

The kit will have mounting brackets and hardware and new pulley

The alternators I'm using also plug straight into the original wiring.

The alternators can be supplied or you can get them yourself from oex $190

Holden $250 or Bosch for 250-300

Want to get a idea how meny people would be interested as all up

Alternator with kit will be under 500.

But the more interest I get the more I make the cheaper I case offer them to everyone.

Thanks

Interested! That being said, what is the main advantage and disadvantage? I assume this is a higher current than the standard alternator (90, 120?), and that you can power electrics / charge the battery better at slight expense of engine power?

  • Like 1

Yeah standard alts are 80A and when running for example walbro 460 (can do 30A per pump) and electric power steering (Astra pump can do 80A) you won't have any power left for engine/lights etc

Bad enough with direct injection fuel rails that can shoot fluid through skin like a bullet

Like a liquid bullet with no gun powder.? Just so I am the same page,

Advantages of my setup is 140a output
Oem alternator made in Japan for Holden Australia
Local warranty.
Second hand alternators can be bought from wrecker for $50
New from Holden $250

Ard are expensive and try getting warranty if something goes wrong

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
