S14 AC Problem/Question...help

[doitsidewayz]

ok got everything for the ac for my car. when i was trying to connect the bigger line (the one that runs from the compressor thru the back of the motor, to the fire wall.)
well the screw on the firewall looks too big..or the nut is too small and wont screw in ...anyways is there different size's for different years?
my car being a 95 and donor car being 96

hmm. i'm not sure if this will help you but i know that 89-90 are different sizes than 91 from personal experience. i forgot if they were bigger or smaller from earlier models to later, but i know they were different sizes. based on that, i always assumed all dohc lines would be the same but now i'm not so sure.

[doitsidewayz]

yeah i was wondering the same thing...if they happen to be different i hope i can find a shop to just make me that one bit of the line with the right size...if thats even possible lol

im not going to answer your question because i honestly have no good info on this topic

i will however add that these last couple days have been super fucking hot in socal. just a reminder to anyone on the forum who is a hardcore racer and "you dont need ac"

let this heatwave be a good reminder: dont be stupid, you need ac.


keep us posted with the solution to your answer though, im curious

You dont need it. I never had it in the first 4 cars I had, but I sure in the heck do in my s14 and I am never taking it out!!!! I am over the days of soaked t-shirts after 5 minutes of driving.

iv never been able to find the answer to why they take the ac shit out...
just a head ache to the next owner of the car

I rode in my car just fine in the heat, but I may need A/C for my radiator haha

[doitsidewayz]

Lol does any one else knows if their different...?

[doitsidewayz]

ok well 95 is different from 96. my friend gave me that one piece of his 95 and bolted on right.
now another question...i tried hooking up the line from the ac to the compressor and theres just no way i can get it in there...is any one on here running ac on their sr swap...?

Why don't u go to parts sellers like auto zone or any place u guys have out there. And buy the one for your car and see if is gonna fit.
