On behalf of us Essex boys, I've used the firm below, prices are now 5+ years out of date.
Compressor Tech/Motor Climate, 66-102 Cherrywood Road, Birmingham, 0121 766 5006 (tel:0121 766 5006), my contact was Bob Stokes.
As a price comparison between HUK and Compressor Tech [all excluding VAT];
Receiver/Drier £263.74-v-£20.79;
Expansion Valve £210.34-v-£28.95;
Compressor New-v-Refurbish £1286.12-v-£245;
Evaporator £910-v-built to pattern £295-£350;
Condensors [the radiators at the front] £?-v-built to pattern @ 16mm thick £275, 20-22mm thick £350.
All in all, not a difficult choice, that plus a lot of wisdom and if you want the recommendation of a good local A/C guy [Brentwood, Essex] for the flushing, purging and gassing please PM me.

thats great news re a UK business being able to offer such services as evaporator reconditioning etc.
hopefully the business is still trading and services are still on offer

I used Bob @ Compressor Tech a few years ago. I can recommend. But I think they've moved to Coventry area now. Check http://www.compressortech.co.uk/ for up to date info.

I recently used them for a new valve and drier on my car. When I get the invoice I will post details.

I've just phoned them and spoke with Bob. They will do a full remanufacture overhaul for between £225-£250 plus £10 p&p

Thanks Guys a great help. Ill give Bob a call.

Depending on the spec of your existing a/c compressor, instead of overhaul, it could be better option by getting OEM -P9K compressor and use your existing compressor CL and the mounting bracket. P9K is better from the efficiency point of view.

If you have already replaced your original heavy exh manifold to the header, you may want to consider replacing the CL and mounting bracket to the later spec so that you can shift the compressor away from the radiant heat of the header.

Was c*cking about at work today, (Honda Aircraft Company) and looked up compressors and found out, (as Kaz said in so many words) the P9K compressor is the same on the older 90's Civics and the Del Sol for $249 US, from Tim Poliniak at oemacuraparts.com.
As well as being advised by Kaz, which should be enough, the price for a NEW, P9K is the other reason.
These are NSX's so why be tight when it comes to keeping them up.

249 of your US dollars, 821.81 of our English pounds for a 38810-pk9-e01 from HUK. Nice exchange rate if you can get it, hence a wish to be prudent rather than tight.

[britlude]

at current exchange rates.....

821.81 GBP
=
1,304.51 USD




so just $1000 cheaper from the left side of the Atlantic....

[nigel]

Go to the oemacuraparts.com web site and have a look see.
Look at the other compressors I mentioned and i'm fairly sure getting one from Tim will be cheaper than HUK even with post and VAT fees.
