are you serious?

firstly not trying to be a d!ck but whats with the capslock? no need to shout at us.

the car will not overheat with a/c if everything is setup right, a few guys around here have a/c working fine as far as i know.

[INFAMOUSRB]

you said if you have the right set up... what would be the right set up for the climate i live in which would be california 100+ all summer............. my thread mentions the set up i have.... let me repeat it as far as cooling i have brand new water pump,fluidyne radiator, 2 10" flex a lite fans one pusher /one puller working off the ignition what do you think???????????

[dekand]

i really meant if everything was working 100%. you should be fine, its just like any other turbo car with a fmic and ac... if its setup right it will be fine, if something is wrong it will not be fine.

Your going to burn out your fans quick. The Temps will go up a little with a FMIC. My temps went up a lil but I think I have air bubles still in my system. My friends Rb25 dosen't seem to over heat at all with his FMIC. Tho were not in the High Desert we live in the 951 aera code.

Bumping this up for more info. I have been told by lots of people that it is not possible to run ac, and the researching I have done has led me to the same conclusion. The only info I read saying it was possible was a "do it at your own risk" thread, stating there was a possibilty of compressor overload and blowin up or some crap. I am in the process of ordering all my parts. can anyone lead me in the right direction in where I can find out the proper way in setting up ac with an rb25 in a s13?

I don't know if you've search or not but I came along a few weeks ago and bugged everyone with this questions before. It is possible, and one member on here (Dekand I believe) has his running he just need to add a pressure swtich or control box so the compressor will cut off before it freezes or blows. If you look at my thread about it you should have the info needed. I'm going to have a custom bracket that allows me to keep the stock KA compressor on the RB which means I hard;y have to change the wiring. I might be selling these brackets as well depending on home must interest we get. here's the thread zerothread?id=125307
