I'm extending my search here to tsikot. I'm looking specifically for the alternator with code Z599. It's a 70A 12V stock alternator of the Generation 2.5 of the Mazda Familia. This alternator is different from the previous generations because it is a resistor-IC type. Maybe someone might have one in stock. Btw, this alternator is made by Mitsubishi.

I was also advised that in case I can't find one. I can get a non working Z599 alternator and replace the resistor-IC to that of the nissan sentra's alternator. Now I don't know what that looks like so maybe someone can post what a nissan sentra's IC would look like.

I don't have the pix of the IC of the familia. I just returned the last one I got and I didn't want to tinker with it.

Need your advice. TIA!
