Help Needed - R33 Alternator

[paulr33]

Hey Y'all,

My alternator is toast and I need a new one.

I am having trouble finding contacts to get me a new one.

I have had a few people tell me a VL one will work but the braket is slightly different.

I have my old one still but it's overcharging so I can get it reco'd but would prefer a new one. The VL bosch new one is $240 which is a pretty good price. I've tried Repco and Binks nissan and neither could help.

If you have any contacts or know of of an exact model that fits please let me know

The part no is 23100 0V10Y

I've just read on calais turbo the RB25 alternator fits the RB30 OK anyone know if it fits back the other way OK?

[Mr. Oizo]

Try a different Nissan dealer, they are usually able to get any part for imported cars.

So repco couldn't get the rb25 alternator?

[paulr33]

Nissan said it would be over $1000 for a new one, har har.

Repco couldn't help at all. MonstaS4 on calais turbo (he uses sau too) said the rb25 alternator fits the VL fine, wonder if it fits the Rb25 the other way

[R31Nismoid]

RB26 fits the RB25, more ampage too from memory

[paulr33]

sweet thanks, will keep hunting

ill probably end up getting the rb30 one and get my mechanic to make it fit

[paulr33]

I have a price on an rb30 one for $302 from repco, they said I can take it and if it doesnt fit return it

[R31Nismoid]

what amp though.

thats more important IMO, while replacing it get something 80+

paul is that vl one from repco a bosch one or hitachi cos i would def go the bosch much better alt

[paulr33]

he didn't say and wasn't too keen on chatting for very long about it either. can u get me a bosch one. i may end up putting the old one back on as i need the car on the weekend. how quick can u get me a vl bosch one?

[SKYBEE]

i can get you one im just not 100% if it will fit so if it doens im stuck wit a alt

[paulr33]

yeah no problems. any ideas on what to do.

[paulr33]

spoke to another place, can give me a new one and match it to suit for $375. he said the nissan jap ones are 70a, but on my plate is says 80A and he reckons the aus ones are 80A, so thats wierd. although i do have a reco one, but it has the stock nissan part and badge no

[paulr33]

matt may have sourced a second hand one, if not my current one will go back on as i need the car on the weekend. will confirm later today

[blind_elk]

Paul,

Still looking? I've still got the one that came on my Stagea transplant engine.

[paulr33]

Yes I am still looking, this is the stock rb25 one ?

PM me if it is please as I basically need it today.

[R31Nismoid]

ring wrecker

get RB25 or 26 one

bolt on drive away

if it farks up who cares. You'll probably fry it or something in a few weeks when you fiddle again

:lol: booyA!
