hi ppl . i recently swaped a D16Z9 into my EK Chassis and used some OBD2 parts , as the crank pulley from my old D14 engine(european model) and the OBD2 alternator.
After the swap , i noticed that my starter was a little weak and my dash lights also , so i measured with a multimeter and i was surprised , because even with my engine running i get only 11, 5 volts....
I checked the belt , and tension is correct , i raise to 2000rpm and still 11,5 volts , so the crank pulley is not the cause ( the D14 one is a little bigger but lighter than Z9 one), so can i conclude that the D14 alternator is not enough to the Z9??
if the conclusion is taht i need to swap my alternator , i have another problem , because , into my OBD2 harness , the alternator plug is a 3 pins one as i show to you above:

And the Z9 alternator have this plug and wire colors:
It´s possible to cut and match them? or can you tell me the pin out of them? so i can match my need 4 wire OBD1 alternator to 3 wire OBD2 engine harness? thz alot for any help...
