Hi guys..96spec R need a new alternator, any advice on what to buy.? Would a GSR work fine?

 

it's the same alternator so, in a word, yes

 

K thanks

 

i have one for sale let me know

 

You might need to swap out the Pulley. can't remb if same size or not.

 

they are, good point with many cars though. the rpm redline has a MAJOR effect on the alternator life if the pulley size is off.

 

Will this work fine? I dont know if the year of the GSR would matter or not.

That is WRONG! The output of the alternator are different and they are made from different company if i remember correctly!

 

get a rebuild kit!! cost effective and it'll work like new...easy to do as well

 

LOL. uh huh, i have both jdm gsr and itr alternators on my shelf, same unit, both denso and both have the same pulley. it's possible the usdm 97 itr used a wimpy alternator due to the lack of AC but the late model cars were similarly equipped to the gsr. in jdm land AC was on every year if i remember right

 

not true

 

sure about that?
