is it necessary if you are discarding all air conditioning pieces? does it create vacuum for the engine is what im meaning i guess. and if i take out the AC what do i need to do with the vacuum lines that will be left loose once the part is removed?

Nissan only used the vacuum tank on the factory equipped AC 260Z and 280Z models. The non-AC versions had a different heater box under the dash which only used cables and not the vacuum operated bellows.

 

Try the local junkyards and look for a non-AC 260Z or a 280Z (all will fit your car). Although these are rare, you might get lucky.

 

My 260Z did not have AC when I got it and I added the factory AC and swapped out the heater box. However, that was a few years ago and my old non-AC heater box is long gone.
