Golberg's AE71 4A-GZE Skid Bucket

[Golberg]

New genuine from Toyota, 2 weeks from Japan.


Yes indeed, tons of room actually cleared out almost all my car related equipment and its been moved to the new garage I'm renting.

Well I've made a slight bit of progress in the past 4 months.

Took me ages, but I managed to hunt down an MR2 4AGZE alternator and bracket.



The significance of this is that its the best way to mount an alternator on the exhaust side. The bracket is solely for the alternator and nothing else.
The alternator itself has special heat shields also and runs an external regulator (to keep it away from the heat).

Alternator test fitted up:


Something else significant occurred, the key to it is in this photo:

Is there a 4m floating around too?

[Golberg]

We have a winner!

Yeah, there is still one in it.

Are you after one?

[Matt]

How clean is that alternator...

[Gunner]

Yeah need one for my cressy. Is it a runner? How much?

[Golberg]

I reco'd it

Its down at the wreckers where I do the occasional shift.

Next time I'm down there I'll see if its got anything on it about running.

Man I hate the tensioner on the mr2 bracket. My brothers ae92 has it and is so hard the tighten.
