EY fellas,

Yesterday, being a hot day, I turned on my air con (haven't turned it on in a while) and warm air started blowing out of the vents (I set the climate to the lowest setting, 18 degrees). I have an R33 GTST

I know that the air con is engaging because when I press the A/C button the revs blimp up slightly and the idle sounds different.

Anyway, about 3 months ago, my air con was FREEZING cold.

I recently got a RB25/30 conversion with an Autronic SM4 and I was wondering, could it possibley be that when the mechanic was taking the engine out, the gas from the air con mechanism escaped?

I am not too sure how air con works, hence the reason I am asking what it could be, would it just need a gas refill because the engine was taken apart?

ANy help would be great,

CHeers

dude, I would say it needs a regas. Should be about $90 at any auto electrical place. Your pressure switch is working since you said the a'c is engaged when you turn it on..

the auto elec guys will hook it up to a machine and be able to tell you straight away if the system has any gas in it.

Cheers

Daniel

      Yep that's pretty much what I want to see. Racecars that look and sound like the Group A but with newer tech underneath to make them faster and safer. I'm sure there's enough VK-to-VN commodore, E30 BMWs and Foxbody mustangs shells around to make up a decent number of cars with hopefully a couple of sierras, rx7 and R31s in there too.

      Contact Jessestreeter.com/Skevas Racing/JustJap for a new r34 rb gearbox or go a cd00# conversion. No point playing with unknown condition gearboxes.

      Such a shame places like Amaroo Park have been redeveloped, smaller tracks always make for good racing. Cheers for sharing @PranK there's some good Lakeside video's too. Its so hard with older the cars as parts are so rare and everything was made for a particular chassis at that point in time. Even the V8 Supercar Blueprint era cars are all different between each chassis within a team as they learnt things and made improvements. The COTF cars between each Chassis builder is different too especially motor/oil systems/intakes. The Group A stuff is worth so much too especially chassis with good history. The only way to do it would be composite panels and similar engine drivelines to the original cars. Ford sierra running Focus RS driveline, Commodore running a short stroke LS/LT or a Falcon with coyote and a H Pattern dog box. Could use a standard ecu across all models with a Torque Map and DBW for parity which is not even used in Supercars currently. Hell a TCM is almost a full chassis car these days and the suspension is not even close to standard style in the front running cars.

      Wish someone would start a racing series for Group A replica cars, a bit like Touring Car Masters but for 1985 onwards and not grandpa's falcon and/or Monaro. I know they race in some historic class but that's for original cars, no replicas allowed.
