Aircon compressors
matara - December 1st, 2003 at 09:33 AM

I have decided to keep the aircon kit I had on sale here for some time, as I had a think about it and thought that it may be a bit of a drama fitting it into my cabrio bug alongside a turbo kit, so I thought about putting it into my Splitty to keep my impending newborn kool during summer.

I've got pretty much everything required, but I had a look at the compressor and it seems a bit large. I've heard of people using compressors from small Japanese cars, and I was wondering if anyone can suggest any models that have good small compressors?

Here is a link to a few pictures of bugs with aircon fitted. Anyone recognize the compressors?

And this is my compressor. Its a Sandem.

little cars like for festiva's, dihatsu sirions ands just tiny cars would be best.... try to get the whole system and just use what u need for the whole lot, make sure all the gas and stuff are compatable .....shat liek that and it should be cool
