Hi guys im looking at purchasing a new alternator for my motor,does the 200sx run the same alternator as tha 180sx?

Depends on the year. And the engine. CA18 used different alternator than later SR20s.

Does anyone know where i can get a new alternator?for CA.

auto electrican. take in your old one

Hi guys mine is still in good condish,just wanted something thats a bit tidier for a clean engine bay look,can u chrome them or will the heat affect the chrome.

model no. Nissan ARJ008-R

Hi oda thanks for that,much appreciated.Now i can ring nissan and give them the part number,talked to them today but they were not very helpful.

It isn't that hard to pull the front and rear covers off and bead blast them, then it will look like new and save you several hundreds of dollars

dont buy it through nissan is will cost twice as much. Just go down to your local auto shop that sells electrical parts/starter motors and what not.

I did at Pigdog said, took a couple of hours to strip, clean sandblast, reclean and assemble with new bearings. Worth the effort plus I know its now in good condition and ready to spin at crazy RPM...LOL. Send me yours and I do it for ya if you want or I might even have a spare I can clean up, you just might be waiting a little while at time is a tad hard to come buy at the moment...LOL
