Hey fellow Skyline friends.

Was using my aircon the other night when it died.

got it checked out and found it was the compressor.

Does any1 have a compressor to suit an Rb25DET R33 skyline..

Need it pretty quick as its getting to over 40degrees here in rockhampton.

Cheers.

Michael

My aircon shat itself about a year ago because i never used it, which causes the seals to dry out. Now it's summer i really want it going again, particularly since my car is black. An aircon place here in Cairns told me that sending mine off to be rebuilt (in Brisbane) and back on my car will take about a week and $1500. I asked if i should buy a 2nd hand one off ebay and hope it was in working order and he warned me that any aircon that has been off the car for a while (as unused) is likely to seize up anyway because of the seals, and will therefore require a rebuild in most cases anyway. As my car is simply my weekend warrior i have no problem losing it for as long as it takes but if you need your car day to day perhaps buy one and have it freshened up first, then book the car in to have the work done when convenient. I have watched compressors go off on ebay for $30.

oh rightio. I see...

I cannot get a compressor from anywhere here in rocky.

700 bucks fitted and all that jazz if i can find a compressor..

Is turbo model engine the same compressor as the RB25DE??

Because repco can get 1 of them but not for a turbo. Just curious.

The weather here in rocky is TOOO hot not to have the lovely skyline climate control.

Cheeeers, Michael

I dunno if they are interchangeable. Stick to what you have would be the safest bet. I have a series 1 and wanted to buy a series 2 compressor because it had much lower k's when removed from the car but the seller told me that the pipes were different sizes so i decided against it. you have an r33gtst s1 correct? next time i find a cheapie on ebay i'll post you a link. there are plenty of skyline wreckers in the brisbane area that would have a better idea than i do

I can confirm that S1 and S2 compressors are different sizes, i have a S1 but i managed to fit a S2 compressor on by using bigger O'rings..

i wouldnt advice this but i had no idea what series compressor i bought..

hope this helps. :P

I have a turbo R33 A/C compressor sitting here unsure if it is series one or two. I got it for free from a wrecker down here when chasing one for a R32 because he wasn't sure if it would work or not and just so you know the inlets on of the pipes is a think 1-2mm bigger on the R33 for then the R32. The biggest problem for a compressor would be postage as it is heavy as hell.

I know of Mark Gibbs Panel House which is just off Moss Street near me (Logan City). I can't remember how much it cost me to get my R32 compressor sent up from Nisswreck in melb as I had alot of trouble finding a working R32 one.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
