Hey all,

I'm having a little problem with my AIRCON, it was not working as 'well' as before a few days ago and then today it has totally stopped working,

At the mo' it does this..

While driving/idle it will try to engage the aircon/compressor for 3sec's then stop for 12sec's then try for 3sec's (seconds) over and over and over again... i took it somwhere and put some more gas in it, as i felt the gas might have run out, BUT its all there and ok, no other problems with the aircon and anything really this is the first thing that has happend,

Some people have said it could be pressure related and its switching off to stop the pressure from building up, this makes sence.. im taking to an aircon place tomorrow, but i like to have some suggestions about possible causes...

I got my hose and sprayed the aircon radiator (right?) and it seemed to stay on for much longer but then it would stop the aircon, and restart it.

Ive ran the diag for the a/c and have not found a fault.

being in darwin this is REALLY crap and i want to fix it asap.

There are no noises apart from the usual a/c clutch and assosiated devices.. so what else can it be? blocked pipes and filter?? anyone else had this problem...

Cheers.

      Thank you for the feedback bro. Looks like it’ll have to stay off the road till it gets an ecu

      Only if you do not You will not be able to drive it with any serious load without risk of it pinging, which will either slowly or rapidly kill it, depending on how bad it is.

      Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
