Guys I have an R32 GTR ('89) – and I have been having problems with the aid con not working properly. From time to time it just shuts off and starts heating for a few minuets- and then seems to sort t self out and start to work again ???

it seems to kast longer if I set the temp to 18

If I do the self diag test, I get the mysterious PBR error ?

I've had it re-gased and presure tested - OK !!

Anyone know someone in Brisbane that can FIX this for me b4 summer starts

Out of interest, do you know anyone with a 32 GTR you can pinch the A/C control out of and swap over? Be very cheap and easy to fix then, just grab a new (read: second hand) A/C control and your right. No labour charges, etc.

Just a thought, dont really know anyone in brisbane I'd trust with a gtr :(

Had my aircon fixed just recently at Brisbane Tuning & Turbo at Woolloongabba 3393 1588. I think they use the radiator - aircon guys across the road, but all is now good. Something to do with a pipe that tends to deteriorate in the skylines. Sounds as though your prob may be slightly different, but they should be able to help.

You could also try Sterling Auto Electrics at Montpelier St Bowen Hills 3216-0907. They just rebuilt my compressor and also repaired the control unit. They were the authorised repairer for the warranty on my car. Speak to Roger. I gave him the AC section of the R32 GTR workshop manual as a reference as well so he shouldn't have any problems.

How much did it cost Robocop to rebuild the air con compressor? I'm up for one of them as well. Being told from different places to just get a new one or recondition the old one. I've got two. My original one borked so I bought a second hand one and the same thing happened within like 2 months.

Can somebody post up or have a thread with all the contact details for our sponsers , as I need someone to hook up my Profec B , and I have found out I have a nice little leak in my zaugst manifold , so that needs to be replaced and the manifold machined to stop it happening again !

P.s does any one have a 33 gadge cluster , mine is fruited !

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
