RWD 4AGE Alternator Bracket Tue, 08 October 2002 20:33 Go to next message
Howdy......just wondering how the top RWD alternator bracket mounts on the RWD config'd 4AGE...it should sit on the passenger side of the car if i'm not mistaken - which is fine but where in the hell does it actually mount on the 4AGE?

i have a MR2 setup but the problem with that is it will foul on the bottom inlet housing...

any ideas? 100% sure one can be fabricated and maybe hung off one of the exhaust manifold bolts, just wondering if anyone has travelled this path already?

I just welded up a bracket and shoved mine on the intake side, just near the water pump, screwed into the holes in the block where the blower used to live.

i was puzzled about this when i was working on my mates fwd 4AGE which we are converting to rwd. We put the rwd water pump on and the alternator didnt line up with the rwd water pump. Is this your problem? i was thinking of just unscrewing the front bit off the rwd water pump, and replacing it with the fwd water pump bit. Still having the neck of the rwd water pump. havent tryed this out just as yet, hopefully all goes to plan Rolling Eyes

hehe, I've had this problem with my ZE.

At the end of the day..

I'm running RWD...
Alternator w/ bracket (sits under intake manifold)
Water Pump and lines
Crank Pulley

That way it all lines up Razz

I found with the RWD Alt & Water pump the GZE crank pulley wouldn't line up.

Also, the GZE crank pulley is about 5mm larger in diameter compared to the GE one.

The difference between a FWD & RWD water pump is the pulley itself, one is offset approx 6mm further back than the other.

If yours doesnt line up with the crank pulley, then just swap the waterpump pulley for either the RWD or FWD one, depending which you already have.

You'll see what i mean when you get the two pulleys side by side..... Smile

Cheers
