I'm about to purchase a 92 Miata, and the guy said it doesn't have A/C. I asked if it just needed the compressor changed or what, and he said it needs like the whole thing. What all does that entail? Is it just the compressor I'd need to buy? What other parts would I need? Please help, thanks!

The AC system consists of:
Condenser & Dryer
Lines, high & low pressure
Relay & pressure switch
Evaporator assy
Compressor

Luckily for you I have any part or the entire setup for that car available at a reasonable price. :)

ahhh you have those parts? get me some info! it's so hot outside, i need some a/c! all i've got in it is the blower motor. but i was told by a mechanic i need the compressor, the piece that holds the compressor, the condenser, the belt, compressor hose, and i'm guessing i'd need the lines?

What you need depends on what you have now...if you have nothing you need it all.
If you have part of it, well...thats different.

And...if youre in Dacula I am right across 316 for you. :)

Yeah I pretty much need it all :/ but i'm super low on cash, considering I just bought the car. Haha, but if you're willing to work with me, I seriously need those parts!! I've got like $100 I could spend :/

Nice to see I won't be the only modded white NA on the board any more!

Just be sure that after you install it, take it to a shop and have the system properly evaporated and filled. You'll thank yourself later. :)

Alright, will do. Do you know how much that costs?

And that'd be awesome if you could cut me a deal. I know it's not much to offer, but it's all I got for now! But yeah, I pretty much need all the parts I listed off, so just name a time and place and I'm there! I need some A/C asap.
