How do Gents. I am aware that the brise alternators are a nipon unit often found on a micra. What I am wondering is, what car is a (verto clutch) hi-torque starter motor from or is it a bespoke unit? My starter is goosed and I am toying with the idea of a hi-torque version, but wondered if I can bypass the hi-torque cost...? |

My mate will do you one for £80 (iirc). But they are for 107 teeth rings gears and most vertos are 126. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

Excuse my ignorance but why would you need a high torque starter on a Turbo Mini?

You are taking the high torque too literlay. The high torque starters are smaller lighter and use a significant amount less current to turn the engine over. They also do spin the engine over slightly quicker.

Some photos. You can see that a stud has been put in so it can be bolted up from the other side, this stud will fit straight through the existing threaded hole.

They are basically of Japanese cars (I don't know the details). They are then machined and a new adapter plate added to fit the Mini, although in theory they can be made to fit most cars. http://www.twin-turbo.co.uk
