so, is it possible to convert to auto climante like the featured ride right now has? I'd like to put it in mine, but would like to know if its possible and how hard...

what do you mean auto climate control?
like the temperature always is the same degree in the car???
Yeah exactly. You can see what it looks like in pictures of certain overseas celicas- it was never an option on U.S. Celicas. it replaces the rotary switches for temp and fan speed with push-buttons, and a dial for temprature. I think it looks better, and its nice to just set it and forget it. here's a picture of what it looks like-

Its like on most new cars. You pick a temperature and it stays that temp in the car. So there is no need for the hi - - - to lo knob. Or the heat/cold knob.
Does automatic climate control automatically kick in the A/C when it needs to? I don't know if I'd like that if it did, as A/C kills power big time in my car.
Also, I'm not sure what you'd need to do exactly, but I'm fairly certain that you'd have to get the climate control unit and the external temperature sensor.

if you set it to auto mode, it will kick in the air as needed, yes. But you can also set it like a normal system and have it run at a set speed and temp. sounds like this could be quite a project seeing as nobody has attempted to do it...

Ya, the AC definately kills power. I switch it off when I pass and such.

You guys think so? My air dosent affect my car too much, in my opinion... But hey i was used to driving a ZX3 auto that had air that just ate ALL of the cars power so who knows?

You guys will probably notice it more when going up steep hills...
Ray, are you selling your vehicle? Or are you just getting a second vehicle. A G35...ahh, another money-pit. A very class car, though. I would love to see a G35 with a Skyline conversion on it.
Has anyone finished this? Does this automatic ac control come in any USDM Cars?
AC doesn't kill THAT much power.. it's like 3 hp guys, max.
woah..older thread than me came back.

Me too. I am in the middle of swapping the wiring harness and have the Automatic Controller only for the JDM. I am wondering if it came in a USDM version that I might be able to put together to make one good one.
Was there even a LHD car with the electronic AC control? I would have thought a GT or even if a GT4 was made LHD?
