Drewz75t Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Bumping a 10 month old thread for any updates. I ordered the 4 Seasons part #38608 but the picture looks very different from the one that is installed in my 75 with factory air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanceVance Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Just thinking out loud, but has anybody considered going with modern all electric controls? I had to drive a rental Nissan Quest recently, and was impressed with how nice and tidy the A/C controls were... I've got no idea about the rest of the A/C components, but it might be worth looking at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkRev Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Just thinking out loud, but has anybody considered going with modern all electric controls? I had to drive a rental Nissan Quest recently, and was impressed with how nice and tidy the A/C controls were... I am picking up where Nismo280zEd left off (I got his car and parts this month) and plan on finishing what he started. He picked up a fully electric control unit, fan, compressor unit, and all the parts needed to graft it in. The car is gutted right now and I am working on fabrication of this AC system after I get it off of jack stands. So far the biggest problem I have run into is mounting the modern fan box without destroying the stock look of the interior. I love the Z's dash and I do not have the heart to cut it up. Hopefully within the month I will have an update. P.S. I know that it possible to wire up the stock fan to this control and still might do that. Just have not put the wrench time into it yet.

FWIW - the control unit in post #9 is fully electronic AND fits in the original bezel location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrayZ Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 any updates on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zohanisback Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I, too, am interested as I am planning on doing a complete modernized fit with electronic actuated doors on the system once my fiberglass dash is complete. I'm also planning on designing mine more like a 370z with the three simple knobs at the bottom of the center dash, though. A/c units... darn those complicated things. I plan on just fabricating everything under the dash for my unit custom, as I've shortened the dash space by about 3 inches. Yeah, it's gonna hurt...
