I'm going to crazy lengths to try to find an alternator bracket for my celica. Everyone says that you have to change the alternator brackets when you are going to put a mr2 3stge into a celica. Why can't I get the bracket for the MR2 and put it on the celica? And will the 5sfe alternator work on the gen III engine? Does anyone have pictures of the two? Does something need to be ground down so that it doesn't hit something? Or does it mount the alternator in a different place than the celica 3sgte? Pics please if possible! Thanks!!

I have experience with the mr2 alterator bracket and yes it works with out grinding or massaging. I willpost pics upa little later when I find my old setup. Its a way cleaner look than having in front but it is true you have to say bye to the power steering.
