Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit , didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.

I’m thinking that’s the route I’ll go, thanks for the input!

Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.

Good to know, thanks!

Hey all , was wondering if anybody knows of an aftermarket equivalent for the AC compressor belt on an RB20det . The OEM part number is AY14040925 . Nissan themselves and every other place I have tried says this pitworks oem belt is either discontinued or back ordered. Edit: Just realized the pitworks belt lists 4PK925 in the center of the packaging , I found a Bando belt with that same number on it, can anyone confirm if they should be the same?

Thanks @soviet_merlin will definitely add that site to my list of places to look for JDM parts, this is the first jdm car I’ve ever had so I’m new to having to search for parts like this and finding parts over here is not easy since we never got any of these cars in the states.

@funkymonkey thanks so much for the links! 🙏🏼 I’m located in the US so I’m a little worried about what shipping would be to get it here but it is what it is, may be cheaper to have someone grab it for me and then ship it themselves.

@soviet_merlin I’ll definitely check with some of the yards , I believe that one linked is a GTST latch but I’ll contact them and see if they have anything available , thanks!

@PranK is what it is but thanks for taking action and helping people prevent it in the future! I’ll be way more careful myself now with buying from individuals 👍🏼 live & learn

Yeah looking back I totally ignored some things I shouldn’t have so I put some blame on myself, I was just overly excited thinking I finally found a latch and somewhat blindly went with it. I did not talk to that user he mentioned directly and I did think it was weird he DM’d me with a direct email contact instead of just replying to this post. The guy did send me pictures of all the supposed latches he has but now I think they were probably just pictures ripped off of previous sales done elsewhere online. Would be cool if someone could look into it , just wanted to bring attention to it cause I don’t want anybody else to get scammed.

yeah exactly what GTSboy said. Good shout though, I could look into that. Also y’all be careful of the people on this attached image . Pretty positive I’ve been scammed by this douche , if you see the message sender or the forum member he mentioned steer clear (not 100% sure if the message sender was in on in it) but definitely seems the person who owns that email is a scammer. Was told I’d get my latch from him in 3-5 days, now it’s been 8 and he won’t reply to any of my emails anymore.

Hey all, I’m looking for a hood latch and the support that it mounts to for an R32 GTR. Im putting a gtr hood on my gtst and ruined my HCR32 latch support in the process of trying to modify it to work. I’ve tried fb marketplace, eBay, japan eBay and various other sites and can find absolutely nothing , any help to steer me in the right direction would be appreciated.

For anybody finding this in the future here’s a fantastic chart that shows which HKB Boss Kit goes to just about any Nissan you may have

Ok after looking at DriftWorks site it appears the ON-110 I tired is for an earlier model year and the ON-115 they have labeled as GTR specific, so I’m going to give ON-112 a try as the description they give says it’s for late model skylines with Hicas. Fingers crossed , had no clue so many different variants of hub existed.

Fair point, maybe it’s not the number of teeth that’s different but the orientation of them? I mean I’m going by the arrow labeled “top” on the hubs when I try to line it up so don’t think it could be going on upside down. I saw a chart someone made a while back that showed what different boss hubs supposedly fit all of the different 32 models and variants but I can’t find the damn thing and it was kind of confusing hence why I probably bought the wrong one. When I have it apart again I can post pictures to help explain.
