In my view, as with on the E30 systems, it is better and cheaper to source R12 and keep the system as installed rather than try to shoehorn a larger condenser in with unknown cooling capacity.

I know mine. It's "more"

 

You've seen the original condensers, right? I think there's room for improvement

 

Themis, nicely done! The next step for me will be whatever window tint blocks the most heat without looking hideous.

Funny you mention this, my friend just installed a new clear 3m window tint that blocks UV and a large amount of radiation heat

The motor that I ordered from pitstop auto showed up today - it's the same dcm motor, as they said it'd be.

Correct.  I have only used it a couple of times since installing, and only in mild temps, but it gets ice cold instantly and gets so cold that it needs to cycle the compressor even on its coldest setting.  I will of course need to report back on its performance at 90 degrees!

 

 Reporting back at 91 degrees.
