Did a quick search, but couldnt find the answer I'm looking for. Sorry if I missed it.
I'm looking at replacing my alt, but dont know which one I should be looking for. Car is a 98 chassis with a jdm 93 mr2 engine. I know the mr2 mounting brackets are different from the 5sfe's, but is the actual part different? When I call the shop should I be asking for an alt for a 98 celica (5sfe motor) or for a 93 mr2?

because we are not 100% sure if the mr2 alt fits in the 5sfe or st185 bracket, when it gets relocated to the front of the motor.
you should probably look up the part number thats written on your old alt. that will tell you where it came from, and what you need to replace it with. This post has been edited by lagos: Aug 8, 2007 - 12:10 PM -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
