I have heard that this can be done,,,
Is there a kit ??
or is back to the old inginuity, you know someone cuts out a plate and can adapt it to take the far cheaper holden alternator ?
Any thoughts,,
Pud and Barb as I know hat you guy's got caught
Cheers Bucky

I heard that it was an alternator off a VP commodore, ( 70 - 90 amp not too sure ) and an adapter plate was set up to go onto the 3.0 TD ( ZD30 ) engine.
Now how true it is is yet to be established, but if so, it makes a mockery out of the price that Nissan charge
Like you, I will want to see it too,

excuse my ignorance, but arent diesel alternators designed to provide vacuum for the brakes, or is that only on certain models??
Not having a go or trying to be smart, just 'expanding my supply of UFI'

What does a Holden Alternator cost? It would have to be cheap to make it worthwhile buggering about to make it fit,I put a Brand new Nissan one on a ZD30 for $370.00.

Hows it going Bucky,
When I had an early model Pajero , I found original mudflaps V expensive , Went to Clarke Rubber and sorted things out , Noone knew the difference !
I dont think its any benefit if you have to mess around with " half assed" adapter plates and non standard installations if you only save like 100 dollars , it may end up being a far greater pain in the long run.
