i gotta ek hatch and im on a budget right now...will d16y7 altenator fit a GSR???

 

Not without modification.

There are two issues. First is the wiring, which can probably be solved by splicing your old plug into your new harness, if the plugs don't match up. (count wires first).

Second is that the pivot bolt will not line up to the upper bracket.

I have heard of people shimming the bracket out with washers to get the arc traced by the pivot bolt to intersect with the arc slotted into the bracket, but I did not go that route.

For a mechanical retard like myself, installing the alternator was such a pain in the ***, so I decided that I never wanted to do it again... so I bought a new alternator from acura.

 

i have a 70 amp b-series alt. if ya need it
