MX-3.com

I'm looking to purchase a klze swapped mx3, but the seller claims the alternator is faulty. What would best approach to replace it? Any extra difficulties with access on the swapped engine? Any other likely sources for charging failure on these engines? The car is around 3 hours away and I would like to fix the problem there instead of tow. If I was to change it to the 110 alternator regardless, is the millenias 2.3l alternator compatible or only the one from the 2.5?

If you want to go for the 110amp alternator than you need to add some additional wiring for the 12v.
Also you'd need to have the alternator mount (alternator to head) from the 110amp.

If you want to have a quick fix; take a standard alternator and swap it out.

Tell him to replace the alternator. Offer an extra $100.

Alternator is easily available at Junk yards. They are cheap !
