Hi, With the Oz/US dollars almost at parity I was considering purchasing a new A/C compressor from Concept Z Performance. Here is the link: http://www.conceptzperformance.com/...r_Type=NIS300&UID=20101017212212121.44.231.14 Has anyone else purchased this which is listed at US$630 +p&p? Can't see why it wont work but was curious if anyone else has purchased a unit and fitted it to their zed. Cheers
Even with freight still a competitive price compared to a full rebuild. My full compressor rebuild cost $600 2 years ago
I can't see any reason why it wouldn't fit, the compressor is mounted the same for LHD and RHD cars, shipping would be about $120 I would say.
I had a A/C rebuild about two years ago and I considered it a bargain at $700. The A/C compressor for the zed is unique. I've looked long and hard for an equivalent and can't find one. Anyway, I'd like to keep a new one in the garage as I've noticed a loud bearing whine recently started when A/C is switched on. Suspect A/C compressor will soon go bang! I think Surface freight is about $90 but I will confirm with Coz. A new A/C compressor for say $720 is a bargain (incidentally the new price from Nissan when I asked two years ago was $1,300) Cheers
I asked Coz for one a couple of months ago he he said the LHD is different to the RHD and it would not be suitable. I think the mounting and or fittings are around the other way. Unfortunately I have deleted the email so I can't check to see what he actaully said and I have had a couple of sleeps since then and can't quite remember. Regards Stephan
i brought a compressor from Nippion air parts, cost me $516 and after having 2 second hand ones die on me its the best $516 i have ever spent on my car
