I have a 98 Nissan SX that should be real similar. You have to first take the other belt off by loosening the top reae pulley and letting it slide down to release tension on that belt. The tensioning belt is on the firewall side. Once that belt is out of the way you can start on the alternator belt. Loosen the center bolt on the tensioner pulley, located high between the alternator and the crank. Then you should find the tightening bolt in front, below the alternator. I believe it's a long 5/16 bolt sitting at about a 45 degree angle. Back that off to let the pulley go up and release the tension on the belt. Then it should slip off and the new one should slip back in place. Then just retighten everything. Hint - to get to the pulley center bolt you will probably need to pull the passenger wheel and plastic splash guard.

BeltsYes, you must remove all of the belts to replace the alternator belt. The compressor belt first, then the power steering belt then the alternator belt.
Loosen the belts, unbolt the old alternator, bolt the new one on, tighten the belts back up.
One to two hours tops.
loosen adjuster bolts and take off belt......
