ok i've looked all over the fourm here to get as much info on a gs alt swap
i just manted to make sure i got everything right so correct me if i'm wrong
ok i take my alt out of my 94 rs 1.6 dohc and replace it with a alt out of a 94 gs and all i have to do is change the pulleys on the gs alt to the one off my rs alt.
now is there anything i'm missing like do i need the bracket off the gs motor or will it just bolt into the same location on the rs motor with out any worries or problems ???????????????????

According to Vaughn Nishimura's old Web page. "swap pulleys from the old 60Amp to the 90Amp alternator because the "B" engine use a V-belt where the "K" engine use a serpentine belt. Also the Mounting bolts attach from the opposite side. Once the alternator is mechanically installed the wiring just plugs in."

sweet thanks for the info

Thx a ton for posting this

Just got here looking for the info and boom there it was. Kinda handy.

Im hoping a 90 amp will fix some of the power problems in my 96 RS 1.6 DOHC.

How good are the ground wire kits btw? are they worth it even if I change to a 90amp alt?

Most people say the ground wire kits are well worth it.

Gro has a howto here:
