Running AC in 1jz/2jz swapped FD
 

Wondering how to get the AC running in a 1jz swapped FD. Now that the car runs and drives, I'm looking to button up all the remaining creature comforts. My HVAC isn't even operational so that's fun, but another problem for another thread.

Searched the forum and through other member's build threads and couldn't find any info on it other than a member mentioning he had running AC post build.

What I know so far is it'll be a mismatch of supra compressor, water neck, rx7 everything else, and custom built lines. Been reading extensively through LS build threads on here and norotors on how they got their AC running. Will it be more or less the same/similar to that? Would love some insight from members who have done this swap in their FD's/FC's and have air conditioning fully functional.

fully functional ac in my car. It's pretty straight forward.

I'm using the 1j compressor, an integra drier and an fd pressure switch and condenser. It works just like stock. All the lines are custom of course.

I'm not sure what you need help figuring out. The whole system operates just the same as stock except using a jz compressor instead if 13b one. You dont need to do anything extra to get it to work.

Perfect that answers more or less everything! It seemed pretty straight forward but I was overestimating the complexity of the job.

Very interesting using the integra dryer. Is your system the denso?

I don't think so. The original drier was the one with the little 10mm bolts running through it. So whichever that one is. When I got the new lines made, I just had them made with the new ends on it so I can use a more "modern" drier.
