I'm wondering how many people with 3rd gen 3sgte swaps, particularly ST205 motors have their A/C working.
I'm looking into doing a ST205 3sgte swap into a different Toyota - not any gen Celica nor my Camry, something completely different. In order to be able to pull this swap off the A/C would have to work properly. I'm just too old to deal with no A/C in Tx anymore. I would send off harnesses to the Doc but I feel there is more involved than just the wiring in the engine looms, but not sure what exaclty. Any insight from those with working A/C would be greatly appreciated - thanks -------------------- '87 AW11 MR2 "Super R2" 4AG-ZE swapped Stage 1 Complete

sorry, I reread it, you're swapping out a Gen II for Gen III, I would imagine the old compressor would bolt in fine. Some compressors have an extra RPM increase sensor that bumps up the RPM a hair when the compressor kicks on but thats usually on newer celicas (96 up i think), and I would guess might be on the ST205 compressor. For that reason, I would say ignore what I said above and just keep the new compressor. If you're getting a whole ST205 clip then you can rip off the evaporator, dryer, condensor and lines since you would probably have a leak in the system somewhere anyway with an almost 20 year old car.
