High Rpm And Ac Question

[Gav]

I assume that there is no cut-out of the airconditioner clutch at high RPMs on an R32 GT-R?

The reason that I ask is that I'm destroying AC belts and I'm pretty sure that it's because:

1. I have a ATI Super Damper fitted that happens to overdrive the AC by 25%

2. I forget to turn the AC off before I.......

3. proceed to give said engine plenty of revs

OK - Assuming (again) that:

1. I like having AC available in a black car in Perth summers

2. Turning the AC off will reduce the frequency of belt destruction

3. I can't be relied on to remember this (and there is no auto disengagement at high rpm)

I plan to fit one of "Uncle Julian's" (aka Autospeed) frequency switches to disengage the AC clutch when a certain PRM is reached.

Can anyone see any flaws in this plan?

Cheers

the a/c compressor is ment to cut out on full throttle

perhaps your aftermarket computer needs to be programed to cut it under full throttle:D

how about trying a bigger air con front pulley to offset the ati dampener 25% overdrive??? just a thought...

sounds loke a great idea. also check alignment of compressor if it isnt square 2 balancer and adjusting pulley it will distroy belt.
