I have removed and tested my alternator from my '91 z32 2+2 na and found it to be bad. I have been searching all over the web technical for the car and have not been able to find one. or one that is easily readable. I know there somewhere on here there is a whole bunch of the manuals for most of the cars. but I have long lost the link in my bookmarks due to having to reset my computer too many times. does anyone know how to get to those links???????? I want to make sure that I put my alternator in right and that I put the wires in the right place.

thanks in advance for the help

Here is a link to the full service manual from Nissan; there is a copy online that has everything about our car in it:

That might not help with the wires but it should help with installation

^^^Nailed it. I just put my alternator back on... one connector on top, one small wire/tiny screw on upper right side (looking from the back) and a larger wire that goes on a stud towards the center. It's not hard to figure out because the small wire goes with the small screw, the big wire goes with the bigger stud.
