Toyota Celica 3SGTE Alternator (does not suit MR2 Gen 2 3SGTE)

Hi Everyone,
 Many of you may be aware i had alternator issues recently.  I bought this 3sgte alternator off Adam (MT2gt35) (who as a side note has been a fantastic seller).   Basically in my haste for a new alternator, i didn't do enough research on the different types that exist.  
 
The alternator is a 3SGTE alternator factory spec Denso Alternator. now this is where life gets annoying.   It suits a Toyota Celica 3SGTE.  It's a 12v 70amp (more info here: http://www.jasoceania.com...or%20Denso%20Reman.pdf )
 
I'm looking for what i paid for it  - $160 Local pickup (lower plenty) or prob around $30 postage anywhere in aus (it was $35 express).  Note this is a new one, that cost $450 NEW so it's a major bargain. (NOTE this is LESS than what i paid for reconditioning on my alternator!)
 
Not owning a celica, i want it gone.  If you've got a celcia, grab a bargain for WHEN your alt dies (being 20+ year old cars it's only a matter of time!;) )

    also if anyone can suggest celica specific forums I could list this on I'm all ears. I should list it on toymods while I'm thinking about it.
     
     EDIT: scratch ToyMods - they've locked down the for sale forum :|

    FML - OZ celica's admins still haven't approved my account for posting. and can't post on toymods... it's on gumtree... not sure if I should throw it on ebay, as it costs money (I don't think there is enoguh of a demand to start a 99c auction)

    Haha yeah i'm not sure whats going on there, I wrote to the admin 3 months ago and didnt get a reply. I even offered to help approve the admins.
     
    Its a bit unfair as it seems like we are the only ones supporting the forum :( So many lost members

    Bighs an awesome Seller everyone, you'll have no troubles with him :)
