Got my first REPU this weekend, need electrical help.
It runs great but the stock alternator was failing. I have an N350 alternator from a S5 N/A RX-7, I have everything installed but the wiring harness. The factory REPU harness has 3 wires going to the back of the alternator, the N350 only has input for 2 wires.
Few questions:
Which wires need to go where on the back of the alternator? And where should the 3rd wire go? Also, do I have to jumper the regulator connections or simply disconnect it?
Thanks guys.

In order to swap out the original REPU alternator for the S-5 you will nrrd to disconnect the vltage regulator and install a jumper. Not sure on which terminals, can let you know later.
Check out these links and they will help you on wiring to the series 5 alt.
I think all you need to do is wire reference voltage to the S terminal. The L terminal is for alt warning light.
Good luck.

Truck's fully legal and plated, enjoyed driving it today to and from work for the first time. N350 alternator is working nicely. Started welding up new floorboards today and progress is so-so. The sooner I finish them, the sooner I can begin painting.
Man...REPU's are awesome :)
