Hey guys,

I have literally searched all over the world, PMing random guys, joining different forums and though I have found some parts, there are some that just seems to be out of my reach.

I really need a/c lines for my A31 Cefiro.

The ones from the compressor to the condenser and the firewall.
These are A31 and C33 specific I found out.
Not even the R32 will fit so if anyone is going to a junkyard or has a set laying around at a shop or a friends house please let me know.
I'm getting desperate I have everything else to make my a/c run but the lines.

It connects to this fitting that faces the front on the car behind the head lights

so any help will be appreciated, I know this isn't the WTB section but I just wanted to make sure the right people that can help me out will see this.

Thanks guys!

i can look tonight and see what i can find. have you thought about custom A/C lines-most a/c shops have the fittings needed to do this.

I went to a local shop right next to my house and they took a look and just shook their head.
I thought it would be pretty straight forward job with a universal fitting or something that can be made but they said that it wouldn't give a perfect seal or some bull like that. There is another shop that i drove by the other day that I want to try but there isn't to many shops that specializing in a/c's surprisingly in LA.
Mostly do install's and lines but all from what is current and from dealership stock not making custom one off stuff.
I've called almost everything on Google that i can think of.
They all talk about having the fitting and being able to make the line.
my problem is the damn fitting.
I really didn't think it was going to be this hard or maybe people are just put off by the fact that this is a RHD car here, either way I'm having a hard time.

Whatever help you can offer I appreciate, thanks man.

Hey, it looks like the first picture you posted if from Yahoo Auctions Japan (you probably already know this...)

This auctions is STILL ongoing! So you can buy all those exact parts that you have in the picture! It's going for 18,000 yen which is 230 USD. If you wouldn't mind buying the whole shibang, you could get someone to buy and ship it for you! (shipping to the US will probably be around 200 bucks!

Here is the link (in case you didn't know, but you probably did...) (http://page17.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/v240006816)

thanks man but yeah, thats where i got the picture. :)
I already looked at that option and after getting a bidding service to get everything for me and shipping it over it will be closer to $4-500 for a set of lines shipped to me after all the fees and stuff.
I think I'm better off just looking for lines by themselves.
Not to mention I don't need 90% of that stuff.
Also I had my friend emailed that auction and he is not willing to separate the lines.
Sucks for me or he just doesn't want to deal with Americans...
thanks for your help though I'm on yahoo.jp almost everynight...
