EY fellas,

Yesterday, being a hot day, I turned on my air con (haven't turned it on in a while) and warm air started blowing out of the vents (I set the climate to the lowest setting, 18 degrees). I have an R33 GTST

I know that the air con is engaging because when I press the A/C button the revs blimp up slightly and the idle sounds different.

Anyway, about 3 months ago, my air con was FREEZING cold.

I recently got a RB25/30 conversion with an Autronic SM4 and I was wondering, could it possibley be that when the mechanic was taking the engine out, the gas from the air con mechanism escaped?

I am not too sure how air con works, hence the reason I am asking what it could be, would it just need a gas refill because the engine was taken apart?

ANy help would be great,

CHeers

dude, I would say it needs a regas. Should be about $90 at any auto electrical place. Your pressure switch is working since you said the a'c is engaged when you turn it on..

the auto elec guys will hook it up to a machine and be able to tell you straight away if the system has any gas in it.

Cheers

Daniel

      High temp brake fluid?

      yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)

      Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions

      Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣

      Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?

      Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
