this happened in my old 96 z24. the battery light came on, then 2 days later the car died going down the road. i pulled off and borrowed my parents car to run to town and get an alternator. it was about 130$.

it took me about 2 hours to get the old one out (i had never done it before and i was kinda new to this engine at the time) and about 30 minutes to put in.

its not hard. you can do it yourself. if the battery is good then it has to be the alternator. and you might not have much more time on it.

hope this helps!
