Should be 130-140amp.
Hitachi LR1110-720
Nominal Rating - 12V-110A <--that's so g@y
Ground Polarity - Negative
Min. Revolution under no-load - <1,100rpm
Hot Output Current (when 13.5Volts Applied)
more than:
24A @1,300rpm
67A @1,800rpm
87A @2,500rpm
105A @5,000rpm
regulated output voltage - 14.1 - 14.7V
Rotor (Field Coil) Resistance - 2.16 - 2.46 ohms
110 is very low IMO
but then again, that's cause i got a system and dimming comes very quickly for me. i'm gonna have it redone so i can have a 350A alty. should idle at around 180A

110 is not that bad, hell I had some older Mustangs that had 40amps alternator on them
Try running a system off of that

comparing to honda, they cheaped out. but again, for general use, it's fine. for us bass heads, it's doo doo.
i have this one song (DJ Marky - The brazilian job, song #20) the first bass note it hits, cap (5 farad) shuts off, and amp goes into protect mode (when below 10volts) and i peak at around 14.9-15.1 volts. then again, this is ONLY when i'm at idle. when i'm driving, i don't go into protect mode, but the dash does begin to dim. quite annoying if you ask me.

From the sound/entertainment system I have no problem with Nissan using the Alt they did. These cars were not 'prewired' for monster systems nor was that ever the intent.
Now, if we are talking about the good old days when an Alt could actually help recharge a battery vs. today where this no longer the case in most (if not all) cars...that is where I have an issue.

What would be a good alternator upgrade for a 2K2?? I plan on doing some upgrades to the sound system (nothing too dramatic) but I would like to have a stronger alty. to avoid dash-dimming and burning out the stock one too fast...nothing more annoying than having your alty. go out on you.
