To get the full benefit of a decent operating system using R134 you need to use an upgraded condensor. The existing condensor, designed for R12, will not flow properly.

You also need to replace the expansion valve and dryer. If the hoses are original to the car you might as well replace them.

I'd suggest getting a new/rebuilt Sanden unit as a compressor and a condensor designed for R134.
