Well, when it comes to electricity I'm as big a knuckle dragger as there
is.  But....

It could be the alternator.  Did you replace with a Nissan alternator or an
aftermarket reman?

Could be your amps are shorting somewhere.

Someone on the 944 list just had a similar problem.  He eventually taken
all the fuses out and still traced a voltage to ground.  Turned out it was
his alternator.
