Hey all, so iv read the R32 ac thread here, i have a very similar issue

when i turn the temp up to anything over 18-19degrees, it just blows HOT air. Its like i cant get semi warm/cool air, its either HOT or COLD air.

Any ideas? cars an R33 25t. The AC works sweet, its just that it blows COLD OR HOT, NOT semi cool/warm..

THanks :)

this should only happen when the air temp sensor behind the dash is unplugged or broken.

mines removed atm, so it does the same thing, hot until you put it to 18 deg.

do a search to check for error codes on the aircon, im sure there is a walkthrough that could confirm this for you.

Where your windscreen wiper stalk is next to your steering wheel, right behind it on the dash you will notice a little vent thing. Pull your dash apart and its behind that. Will have a plug going into it, could be unplugged.

All fixed!!!! took out the front of the dash console and had a look at the sensor, 1 of the pins was bent and wasnt in. straightened it and plugged it properly.. oh and i cleaned it out too.. washed it out.. now it works sweet!!

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
