Oh wow, I had read about the replacements for R12 but was very skeptical about them. Do they actually work well? Can I just put the RedTek12a in the system and be done or would I have to replace some parts of the A/C. Sorry for all the questions I am not an A/C guy seeing as how this could potentially be my first car with working A/C. Thanks

I understand your hesitation on converting but it is 108 here in Texas everyday and I am really sick of sweating in my daily driver. How much do you think it will cost to get the hoses made because when i hear specialist i think of cost? Thanks

Wow i didn't quite realize it was that complicated. What am i am doing is converting it from R12 to R134a and it has a leak so i figured replacing the hoses and checking the valve stems would be my best bet. Now that I see replacing the hoses is a bigger deal i think i might just try and buy a dye kit and find the leak. Then, just fix it there, clean everything and maybe replace some o-rings and hope that the rest of the hoses can take the higher pressure R134a. Is this a good idea?

Hello, I have an 86 300zx and am looking to replace all the leaky and old A/C hoses. I have been looking around and can find the compressor, expansion chamber, dryer etc. However, I am unable to find all the hoses that I need. I have tried dealerships and local auto parts stores with no luck. Any help is much appreciated. P.S. new to the forums, first post! Thanks Dueces
