your taking a gamble on the 4g alternator and your hacking about of the wiring most people convert the alternator to match the wiring not the other way around your putting a lot of current through that wiring.

I understand not having a lot of money buddy i really do and i hope it works out for you the H22 you are swapping in are you going to swap the belts and waterpump?
what about the dizzy will that fit or are you going to spend out on an obd2 dizzy.

I know we all want to move our cars on projectwise/powerwise but you really need the folding unless you have talented mates to do it gratis not many of us have that some are lucky enough on here.

Well, not that I'm suggesting this isn't dodgy, but...
You could always buy one from somewhere big like eurocarparts...
Fit it.
Drive to the garage.
:scaredtoss: Take it back as 'faulty' for a refund? :scaredtoss:
