We could do a tech day. I'm off Friday. We can probably at least determine if it's an electrical or mechanical problem. I've got some Miata work to do on Friday as well...as long as the parts come in by then.
What the heck happened at Buttonwillow? Has the AC worked since then?
Who has a shop manual?
Can you survive until Friday without AC?

Brian - I really don't feel comfortable replacing the A/C compressor myself because I have heard that it is a pain in the ***. To answer your other questions...
To read about what happened at buttonwillow, http://www.mikeythekidlv.com/report61105.htm (Session #3)
The only time my car has run since Buttonwillow was yesterday when I figured out the air didn't work.
I have my dad's truck so I have all the A/C I want until my car gets fixed.
Friday may not be good for me because there is a chance that my Z will be at a shoot for a Castol Oil commercial. Shhhh, don't tell Royal Purple lol.

Take it to siver state... They had a really good deal on AC recharges and I told my buddy jody about it and he said they did an awesome job for 1/3rd of the price everyone else wanted. I know this is no AC recharge, but still... maybe they can help you out. Oh, btw tell them you found them on Myspace, they'll give you a 10% discount.

MYSPACE DISCOUNT
If you come in and say you heard about us on myspace, get a free estimate and 10% off parts and labor.

Referral Program
Finally, you're going to get to use myspace to your advantage and have something to show for it! Our goal of 1,000 friends has since been overruled by my boss, and now the goal is 10,000. So here's the deal.
For every person that you get to add us to their friends list, you will get 1pt.
1 point is equal to $1 in shop credit.
So, for example, if you get 40 people to be our friend, you can use that $40 for a free AC charge, or an oil change, or put it towards a bigger job.
When someone sends us a friend request, I'll ask them who they were referred by, and I'll keep track of everybodies points by username. So if you wanna play, send me any username and password that you'd like to use, and I'll keep your points on file.
Thanks guys!! Let's do this.

Here are my options so far...
I have a connection to a licensed mechanic that will do it for me in his garage for less than the dealer.
or
One of the service managers at Desert Nissan is going to see if he can get me a deal.
If I decide to go with neither of those options, then I will go check out Silver State
