Hi all,

Im looking for an alternator which i want to attach to my 2.0 blacktop zetec. I need one that is, well, very small in size. GBS do one but at £117 just for the alternator, (clicky linky to GBS) I was wondering what anyone knows of that is physically small but has reasonable output and most important is cheap as chips.

Thanks

Andy

Try searching ebay for Dhiatsu and Kubota ones...

Daihatsu charade seem to be popular on here.
Can be picked up faily cheaply on ebay.

you missed out modest

I thought the 'humble' covered that, but yes, I'll take it...

... and modest

thanks guys, although I just tried an e-bay search and it came up with nothing!!

Oh well will keep looking

search for denso alternator (dihatsu, kubota etc ones are made by nippon denso)

eg Denso Light Weight Competition Alternator 40 Amp | eBay

ok still 75 squid, but almost the same as one as i bought from someone on here... as i remember he was pretty slow

... and small
... and silly
... and weak
... and pure dead boring
... and ugly, no fugly
... and whatever the opposite of humble is

but he was a gent...

anyway, there is loads on ebay, but the nippon denso ones are known to be good for us now, so price has gone up...

Citroen 2cv alternators are very small about 35A output and very easy to fit....cheap to buy as well.....

You lot forgot the most major one


undecided

You can pick up Suzuki swift alternators for less than 50 quid on Ebay.
