Re:hf and dx/si ASAP!!
 

most alternators are interchangable, my brother has my old dx alternator on his b16, we just had to use the 3 rib belt instead of the 4 rib.

Re:hf and dx/si ASAP!!
 

If your batt light came on more than likely its the alt brushes, you can put new alt brushes in for about 12 bucks, and you alternator is good as new. if this is a route you want to take, post a reply, and ill talk you through it

Re:hf and dx/si ASAP!!
 

after about 2 hours of fighting with the alternator i got it out of my hf. im going to test it and run with it. if its a turd ill re post and get the info

it's easier if you unbolt the brake master cylinder from the booster and pull that out of the way.

Re:hf and dx/si ASAP!!
 

Ya its pretty tight. If youve got the alt out, you should replace the brushes anyway, it would suck for you to run that alt. that tests good, and have it quit three weeks down the road, and have to do it all over. It only takes a soldergun, a couple of other tools, and about half an hour.

the hf came out like a bitch. but the dx one fell right out i didnt have to fight it. there are noticable differences in size between the hf and the dx. dx way bigger. is the amperage the same? i think i wanna go ahead and rebuild my alt. so if anyone could help that would be great.
