ok. should I account for any lost ND11 fluid since im replacing the condenser as well?

If you’re purchasing in OEM Toyota condenser made by DENSO it will come with a small can of ND- 11 oil 45 mL

The OEM condenser has more cooling fins per inch and more refrigerant passage tubes than aftermarket condenser

hmm, I did get a denso unit, but it does not come with any fluid. Does this mean that I should add 45ml to my final calculation?

45 ml

another stupid question. does the new denso condenser come with the dessicant installed? it looks like it does but i dont want to open it.

Yes

Alright, everything is back together. I wound up replacing the Compressor, the rubber AC lines and the condenser. The radiator was PACKED with sand so I replaced that too. All Denso parts. Car runs great, no leaks, coolant is burped. Next I'll bring it to my local Toyota Hybrid AC guys (yes I found factory trained guys) to recharge the system correctly. wish me luck!

Yes the brand new condenser comes with a desiccant bag installed inside of it

Well my Hybrid AC guys here in Boise said the system is working well! I feel rather smug.
