Either Sanden or Nippondenso compressors work. You just need to get the correct bracket. I have a GSR swap inside my 99 Civic EX coupe. My old compressor from my D16 engine was a Sanden. The shop that did my swap just got a bracket that was compatible with my Sanden compressor and the GSR engine. That compressor blew so I changed it out to a Nippondenso. I had to get the bracket from a 99-00 SI in order for it to bolt onto the GSR block. In addition, you need to get the correct suction/discharge hoses depending on which compressor you get. Which compressor do you have now? I have an old bracket for a Sanden that I am no longer using that should bolt up to any B-series block w/o issue. I'm not sure which car it came out of but I can check the part number when I get home...

So you need the entire system? Condenser, drier/receiver, evaporator, compressor, etc?
In that case, your best bet is to get a system from an 99-00 Si. Everything should be a bolt on affair...
