This is not a probability of success.

I got a 200 amp alt that was upgraded factory unit off Ebay, so no issues with fitment and enough spare juice to run stereo and car at same time

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The Nissan Quest alternator is often discussed as a replacement alternator for the 944. Has anyone here done this? Is it a straight in, simple job? Are their different versions of the Nissan Quest alternator? Is a bracket required?

POST 2Original post

I'm about to look into this, I will let you know. Believe there's a seller on eBay that sells it with the correct pulley

I've got one, but mine's not in the normal place
