Doesn't anyone have a airconditioning compressor lying around for an R33 skyline that they think works and they don't need?

Or does anyone have a mate that's just done an engine transplant and doesn't need the compressor?

I'm desperate here. I need my aircon. Thanks to Red Devil, they "Serviced" it and now it doesn't work at all.. At least it used to work when you were driving along the freeway.

OR... anyone got any contacts at an airconditioning place taht they could recommend?

hello erin, don't get secondhand compressor as the seals in them been exposed to air would be rooted. it might work for a few wekks , but that's about it. be cheaper to go full aftermarket one from nipondenso for around $700 and it's guaranteed. also u sure it's ur compressor as skylines are at that ages where the condenser will poop themselves as mine did out of the blue and u will need to get custom one about $800 so either way ur going to be lighten to the tune of aroung 700-800. but if u really wanted to fenn from here has one at his house.

it looks like there was 3 different compressors on r31 skylines and one of them looks like it will fit. i think they're about $800 but there might be a bit of work to get it to work properly( hoses may be slightly different). i'll post the part number for that compressor tomorrow.

I have obtained an RB25DETT compressor which looks the same except for a little lug nut that doesn't look like it's been used in it's life, so hopefully this will be the right one and it will get me out of trouble for a while.

I've been told that Zexel compressors are the least reliable and the worst compressor. YAY. Just another lemon thing to add to my car's already long list :(

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
