So hindi the oil and coolant temps are ok , just the a/c starts to blow hot in the hottest part of the day? If this is the case thin you have another issue. lmk ??

Jnut u can call me moe , yes this is the issue , the oil temps are fine and coolant levels are also fine , oil temps are 220 max and coolant levels are one dot behind the middle or one dot pass the middle , every time the car goes in traffic or while ur iin the process of shifting from to any gear the ac seems to blow hot air

I use to have a similar issue with my AC in my G and the reason was weak compressor. It's common for Nissan compressors to give up here gave seen several Gs with that problem

well thats an option ill check for sure , but as i said the kit has no problem and its amazing everything is perfect coolent temps, oil temps everything its just gets crazy when in stop go traffic , and the problem when i go to the mechanic its not crowded in his carage and not hot so even if i tell to check the problem everythin is perfect in his shop , but when i leave and the next day i go out in the peak hour when its hot and too many cars it goes crazy again . and the car has 8000 on the odo meter so do u think a compressor willl be weak in these amount low miles ? its a brand new car ,still smells new

The AC compressor needs air flow and is not designed to have a huge intercooler to be blocking air going to it.I use to have the same problem on very hot days in my 350z in traffic.Once I got going the AC would start working.I know your car is a 370z but you have to take this into consideration.The 370z compressor is different than the 350z it built into the radiator, I heard this is better but do not know if its true or not.

I have seen two Gs with compressor fail under warranty. I'm not sure if that's the case but no harm in getting it checked

its not the intercooler as the fans draw plenty of air across the condensor. should be able to sit and idle with the a/c on until it runs out of gas...Hindi i need to go to a repair shop at the hottest part of the day, when it fails. have them put on a set of a/c gauges find out what the pressures( high and low) are doing while its acting up. also check and make sure the fans are running while the a/c is on , if not the a/c will shut down , its a safety feature to save the a/c system. lmk jason

I hope the problem gets solved soon, but kit is perfectly fine for our weather either its dubai humid hot weather or kuwait/alain try hot weather have seen lots of cars running here fine.

I have seen several cars coming to some specialized workshop here from all over KSA, Oman, Qatar and Kuwait for these kits and all running perfectly fine, with GTM stg 1 and sgt2 kits without any issue.

I totally agree with u that the kit is fine and I support it all the way , I even don't wan a start changing the front fascia and body parts to let more air in ,cuz everyone all over the world ran it with the same fascia and had no problems,but am dessprete to find the solution so am following each advise step by step radiator change , stock thermostat, stollen front fascia,bleeding,checkinn fans and compressor while the problem is live , it's just the bad part abt it , if the car is with me I wouldn't have a problem and I have all the time in the world , but I sold it and it's happen in to the new owner and the reason it's sold is to make it go out in the streets day and night with no issues to get more and more , not to find out the bloody ac doesn't work

I'll try it's very hard to make the issue happen and go to the mechanic where he is it's notmbusy at all ,and am sure by the time I make it to busy roads and back again the issue will resolve cuz Wht I want u to also put in mind the issue doesn't happen unless am in busy roads in stop go traffic , when ever I start driving for bait without stopping it's perfect so something happens somewhere in the car that makes the ac shut off when the car gets warmer in stop go traffic , when I saw warmer I don't mean overheating I just mean that oil temps reach 220 and coolant gauge goes to the middle or 1 dot pass that
