I'm putting an 100KW 4age into ae86 ,and I have a few problems converting it. First of all, I'm using RWD water pump and RWD set up for water lines, my problems is an alternator mounting ,cause I don't think I can mount an alternator in original (100KW 4age) mounting position ...what do I have to ? and Can I bolt t-50 gearbox straight to the 4age ? cause I've heard I may have to change the crankshaft bearings..or something lastly, I've noticed cables from clutch slave cylinder interfere with exhausts, so anyone has got any cheap and great ideas ??
Any info will be great !!!
Thanks

For the alternator mounting bracket you could use a factory RWD item if you can get one or adapt something else, I cant remeber what bracket I used (what it was off, it may actually be the 86Kw FWD one?) but it sits on the intake side of the block up higher than the RWD factory one and I customised the adjusting bracket around the water pump and it seems to work fine.
A T50 will bolt straight up to any 4A block, you may have to change the rear plate that blanks off the bottom of the gearbox if you are using a FWD engine for RWD, you will also need a pilot bearing in the end of the crank. Im not sure what you mean about the crankshaft bearings but I can see no reason why you would need to replace the bearings just because you use a T50 gearbox?!
Get a custom made clutch line made up from the master to the slave theyre about $60
