hot week next week, unfortunatly my aircon compressor bearing is siezed, any ideas on cost for repairs?

My aircon compressor clutch is fecked, been like it ever since I bought it. Got quoted roughly $450 for a s/h compressor, fitting and gassing from Jaustec.

ITS ALIVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally good to see Mitch...i am guessing that you haven't hooked up the stock boost gauge line either?? and as far as i know there should be a connection for the oil pressure....ahh well just get aftermarket gauge that will prob be more accurate

took my R31 to a place in lonsdale on o sulleys rd near the old ASV building who fixed the leak , new condenser and swapped out the compressor for about 300 all up including regas,top work for cheapest I could find around the south.

gotta love the ole UFC Damo......NOT for the faint hearted though (I know Carl - Bezender would agree with me)

I'd love to go toe to toe with a couple of the serial pests on these boards....may even teach them a little respect for the old fellas, lol :)

    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
