so i've had the aircon doctor out today to look at the zed, it turns out my aircon has leaked and is now not working, anyway the guy did a leak test and found the condenser to be the problem, how does the the thing come off? does it come out through the nose cone or is it radiator removal and out that way? the other question as these are only available from the U.S. does anyone have the dimensions of the condenser? as the aircon guy said he could get a matching part cheaper than nissan.

remove the radiator then once its out the condenser has 2 bolts at the top then at the bottom there is 2 nuts to remove from the pipework mine were a pig to get off had to heat the nuts up they were so badly coroded u may be able to do it with just removing the nose panel but itook the front bumper off.

i hope so i can't remove my bumper as the captive bolts in the wings all turn when trying to undo the nuts, you wouldn't have the dimensions of the condenser by any chance

same size as the radiator as it sits directly in front of it, make sure u get the right 1 for your car, the gas used in pre 94 cars is planet killing there is a replacement for it but its pretty expensive

yes i'm having mine converted to r134 i have to replace the dryer as well, but my aircon guy said it looks like it maybe a universal dryer/condenser but i may wait and do aircon as a winter project ready for next year i don't fancy fitting used parts
