Some goodies arrived from GT4-Play that I picked up over black friday. Reconditioned ST205 alternator and starter as well as a new sugar cube. I also picked up a hoodie but not pictured as I was wearing it :D

Does replacing it help shifting? ST165 (E50F transmission)
It helps with the notchy feeling on older cars. It isn't a miracle cure it's similar to replacing the rubber bushings at the ends of the shift cables.

Finally got around to installing the reconditioned alternator. Of course during the process all the clips broke so I replaced those as well.

Alternator removed.

New starter is in and it sounds a bit different than the original but works fine. I noticed that the original starter was being held on by one bolt for the last 6 years :shrug: oops.

Little peak at the flywheel and pressure plate. Clutchmasters still going strong.
