So I got the alternator installed today. I forgot to buy some parts though. I forgot to buy the 2 washers needed to secure the wires on the alternator. Anyway, I got them and eveything was ok.

Here is the alternator installed.



Here is the wire running from the B+ threaded post on the alternator going to the battery positive terminal. That wire is a little over 4 feet long. I had it made a little longer to be on the safe side.


I wasn't able to use the gold plated terminal I bought for the positive battery terminal, because the terminal I had bought wasn't able to take the other oem wire which was quite thick. I needed one like the one gsxr used. It is very hard to find that stuff on the shelf where I live.

Here is the one gsxr used which is the right one:


Here is the wire going from the negative battery terminal to the shock tower.


There is still the ground wire that I didn't do yet. I thought about running the wire from the engine block to the car body like in the picture below, but maybe I'll wait and see the oem ground wire first before I decide.


I used the oem wire for the D threaded post on the alternator. You can see it in the first picture.
