Will an Na manual alternator fit a auto TT?

Yes but it's better to have a Auto alternator as it'll be 100amps compared to 90amps

 

Something like below may be worth considering, yes it's ebay but they are a regular alternator specialist and do express delivery and so should know their onions...

Thanks for that, I have looked at these on eBay but in the description the is a cross reference of part numbers mine (27060-46120) is not on there, also in the description it says it's only 80amps :/ maybe I'll send them a message. Thanks for the info.

There are also 2 different connectors, they are both switchable, but it is easier to get the same as you have

 

One connects side on and the other straight in, this doesn't seem to have a model specific reason as far as I can tell (Keron might be able to advise on that though)

 

If you have a manual, the best bet is to fit an Auto one for the extra 10 Amps, especially if you are planning to run extra electricals

 

N/A and TT's use the same Alternator, just manual to Auto is different, the Auto uses more electrical power due to the extra electrics for the Auto Box controls

Thanks mine is an auto, the part no is 27060-46120, but I've searched everywhere and the only one in the uk I could fine is a genuine Toyota one costing almost £300 which I really can't afford right now. The only extra electrics I have is the Clifford alarm, so would a 90amp manual one fit on ok? Or even this 80amp one that's been mentioned above from ebay? This is causing me a headache :/

Any idea of a rough price of getting mine referbed? I have made a wanted thread, haven't contacted Keron as I was told he was taking a few months out, but will do that now. Thanks

 

Have you tried lee at SRD im shore he was doing uprated ones at a good price. Or he may no of someone that can sort yours out.

Given the number of cars being broken at the minute, surely one of them has a 100amp alternator on the go - doesn't matter whether its an NA or TT.

 

The 100 amp from my NA runs Hodge's mahoosive single with all manner of after market electrics on it.

was wondering if this replacement unit (found on eBay) will fit perfectly on my UK-spec Supra TT auto (RHD)? btw, are both RHD and LHD using the same alternator part number or different?
