Lightweight 40 amp Denso Alternator codes
laptoprob - 22/1/14 at 09:29 PM

Just thinking about dumping the great charging lump off my XE engine in favour of one of these pretty Nippon 40 amp versions.

I'd like to save a bit of cash though and wondered if anyone has a specific codes for the one that other people have used or even the SBD version?

Or failing that which car has them fitted?

You need to look at the Diahatsu for the small denso think its the sirion or charade car. Theres one on eBay now for 25 quid.

Some look at using them off Kubota diggers, but some of these are only rated for low RPM.

Thanks, i think i spyed that one earlier

Also seen the Kubota ones too and yes they will be a lower rating for sure on rpm.

Cheers anyway

you can swap the bearings on the digger ones for about £20

Aernt the diesel versions designed to be more efficient at low speed?

I've got a Kubota digger one on mine and had no problems with it.

If you do get a Kubato version, you could increase the pulley size to underdrive it. Would mean less draw on the engine power also - squeeze out an extra 0.01hp!
