Quest Alternator not fitting??

Little back story, picked up my 92 180sx 7-8 months ago, alternator went out after owning it for 2-3 months. Decided to upgrade to the quest alternator with the CodyAce bracket. When I first put it in, I remember it being hard to get the belt on, somehow though we got everything on lined up and was good to go.


Couple of days ago, I went to a Fuji drift event and everything was good but on the way back the bolt that holds the alternator for the tension bracket broke leaving me stranded and having to get towed back to base.


Next day I got a replacement bolt and necessary washers, then attempted to reinstall but again its extremely tight. I'm guessing the tension is what snapped the original bolt in the first place. Then a friend noticed that I had a 5pk935 belt and mentioned it may be too short. After researching, I found that the belt was indeed smaller than what everyone else was saying which should be a 5pk940.


No one else has had these problems with their CodyAce bracket so I don't believe that is the problem. Just wanted to know if this all sounds correct.


Ordered a replacement belt that should be in today but not sure what size it will be.


What are your thoughts on this??
