Anybody know how many amps the stock altenator on 99 SE Limited puts out? Aren't they upgraded or something from other maximas? Who knows, I might talking outa my ash, but any help would be appreciated. Reason I am asking, I am running a stereo system in the car now, nothing rediculous, but I am running a 5 channel amp with 4*50+150 for the sub, I dont think it draws a WHOLE lot, but you never know- its an alpine mrv-f352, do you see any problems for teh altenator?

Well my 97 SE had a 110 amp alternator originally, I replaced it recently but not because of any charging problems (even though I have an amp and subs in my trunk it was working fine), the bearings were starting to get a little noisy and i have high miles(unfortuantely my car did not fall under the alternator recall). I did it for piece of mind i guess. I got the replacement from nissan and its a 125 amp, I was told by a few nissans that the 125 amp alternator is the only one they offer for replacement for 4th gens.
