Well spotted, save a tow-in . -

The little glass topped device just in front of the rad on the passenger side is the refrigerant flow indicator. If the system is up to pressure you should only see bubbles flow passed window when the compressor cuts in and out and then it should only be for a second or so. If the system is low on pressure the refrigerant will stay as a liquid, the compressor should take it over the threshold to a gas. Here endeth the first lesson.

The A/C compressor does drain power from the engine when it is operating, from 5-10 H.P. depending on temperature setting, the colder you want it inside, the more the compressor has to work to pressurise the system. So if you`re going racing, open the "Moon" roof. Moon roof my a...

I hope you put euro tyres on it, my Skyline fell off the road because of Japanese compound tyres, too hard for our temp. range.

I`ll be glad when the M42 extention is completed, at least we will have different scenery to crawl past. :) -
Sorry Cap`n, Missed the line. The Yokahamas are supposed to be very quiet,hence db, but the report I read covered testing on series 5 Blac White Machines, they don`t use that sort of meat, not a cheap set of boots whatever.
