Which Z shop?
SZR. To be fair, I think the dealers weren't accounting for drier or evap valve install either. I think I'm just going to go with a local shop that'll do it with an aftermarket compressor and 1 year warranty, which is the same as Nissan anyways.
$850 for just compressor + $300 for drier.

Is a new drier necessary? The local shop says only if there's debris from compressor actually seizing and breaking. Some people told me should get a new drier every time you open the system.
