How much do you guys pay for an aircon regas and from where?

Also, I've noticed a VERY bad thing on my two front tyres (haven't checked the back yet) and that on the inner side (closest to the car) you can actually see the steel threads pretty much around the entire tyre. Obviously this is a terrible thing.

I've read the previous threads about tyres, but with Toyo's costing an arm and a leg (which I can't afford right now), what are the next best (and cheaper) tyres?

I can get Kuhmo's pretty cheaply, but I'm not sure if they are any good.

Advice please.

Regards,

Jason.

$13 a kilo for 134a and your average car takes less then that  ... :mad:  

Try and get it cheaper ....

shop around for sure

but just because you believe u can buy the gas for said amount

doesnt mean u gonna find much cheaper

the companies charge 12 months rent on every bottle of r134a - so $13 is a little off - the gas isnt the cost anyways - its the labour and evac etc

      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.

      A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.

      Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.

      Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
