I have an 08 37s and my a/c is completely out of freon. A buddy works for nissan said its not normal and he hasn't really seen any z's or g's come back with a/c problems except with air intakes. My lines look good, except I have to take the front shroud off to check the lines up front. I'll prolly run some dye through to see if there is a leak. I'm wondering if my stillen gen III's came into contact with any lines and rubbed through somehow. Anyone else experienced anything like it?

I have Gen 3's, but haven't experienced it.. One thing that comes to mind though, is during the Gen 3 install (where you have to enlarge the core support) you'd come to very close contact with the fragile metal A/C lines, thus creating the potential to damage them causing a leak.

Maybe you could just remove the whole climate control system to save weight...

I'd say it's not normal too. I have an '08 and my air conditioning is still fine.

You definitely have a serious leak.

Definitely a serious leak.... Anyone with Stillen gen III's be careful if they rub your ac lines. I even tried to bring them higher on their mounts but it still rests on the line. I am going to have to get a new line and tweak it a little and wrap it in tubing to make sure it doesn't rub through again

I have the gen 3 and mine tore right through my line TWICE. The intake is a POS, i had to cut a wider opening in my frame and zip-tie the pipe to sit higher up to prevent rubbing on the line again. Line + labor = $400 a pop

To keep it from rubbing your AC line and causing a leak, buy $1 worth of rubber heater hose in the appropriate diameter and slit it down the side. Wrap it around the AC line to insulate it from the abrasion. Volila!

yes wrap the AC line or intake . I know that the intake pipes get too hot.

Yep, i was gonna wrap it in some rubber hose exactly like blackbetty described. Should take care of it then

I have similar problem. I'm waiting for new lines from infiniti. Just wondering if you got your ac recharge from infiniti or diy or anyone else?

Thanks
