GTM stage 2 Air Conditioner Problem?

LafitteZ

Y'all are missing the point. The oil temps and water temps are better then stock. For instance 200 degree oil temp and water temp 3 dots left from the center and sitting in traffic the ac blows hot air. As soon as you going it still takes a few seconds before it starts to be cold again.

I know, i just thought i'd throw that in there.

And most of us with the problem is with turbo set ups. Thanks for the links tho. Anything helps.

I know it's just stupid lately, i mean it's almost dark outside (8:10) and it's still 90*.. My house AC is set on 75 during the day and it kicks on around 10 am and doesn't shut off till 11 at night.

You have a loss of air flow across the condenser and the only thing that controls that is the A/C fan.

Talked to rob at z1. We are going to make a colder temp water thermostat. We're also going to take a mishimoto fan shroud and put some super high output fans. Didnt realize the fans on the vhr is the same on the de. They are crap.

I forgot to mention we used an upgraded thermostat well and. and it didn't work :shakes head and as I mentioned before this problem occured in our weather in 130f temps so we tried everything trust me guys the only thing left to consider is gtm big as% radiator and their biggest fans . Or atleast bigger fans , I tried meshimoto on other turbo cars here and they don't last much that's my expereince with them I like their radiator but to each his own , just trying to help since this problem was happening since 2010

Yea mishimoto thermostats are garbage so were going to use a nismo thermostat from the de 350z. We're going to use the fan shroud from the mishi Moto kit but were going to cut the holes to fit bigger fans and were going to use I think the name is sprall fans. One fan puts out twice as much cfm as both of our factory fans together. A bigger radiator may be a good fix but I already put a csf radiator and the temps are good with water and oil we need to get the air to start flowing to get the hot air between the intercooler and condenser moving while at idle.

Anybody else with any other ideas

Baer383

Your right on track with stronger fans,I was Z1 today getting some tings taken care of and we were talking about this situation and the mech. there said there isn't enough air flow thru the IC at low speeds including idle he said he has seen this on allot of turbo cars.

Yep

Rob was suppose to talk to Jon about it. Did they come up with something?

Baer383

Rob was there but we didn't talk about that,John was fixing some small issues on my car and me,john,and the mech(his name eludes me right now)but they said b/c the IC is so thick when it's hot and slow speeds all the hot air from the IC goes into the A/C condenser which causes the problem.

I'm going tomorrow to caffeine & octane John will be there I'll ask him then,it's a little late to call him now,plus Rob usually shows up too.
