The easiest alternator upgrade is to fit a Mitsubishi Alt off a mazda rx7 series 4, they bolt straight on and have from 55 to 80amps. You only have to change 2 wires at the alternator.
This is the answer you need from the workshop section.

Try the wreckers or a Jap importers. They should have a fair few laying around.

I have one for sale if you want it. $50.
They are worth anywhere between $80-$130, it's internally regulated as opposed to the Gemini externally regulated unit. In S.E QLD.
