EH2 B18C1 with p54 a/c bracket: which pulley?
I have an EH2 with a GSR swap. I'm using the civic a/c system with a Del Sol p54 bracket to mount the compressor. Unfortunately, I only got the bare bracket without the pulley. 
My question is: do I use a Del Sol pulley/belt or Integra pulley/belt? Is there any difference?
EDIT: clarified that I got a bracket WITHOUT the pulley. Stupid me

Good question, I would like to know as well, because I will be in the same boat in about one week.

Re: EH2 B18C1 with p54 a/c bracket: which pulley? (93SSPHatch)
I spoke to a couple guys at the Acura dealership, and they said to just to go with the Del Sol pulley assembly. I just picked one up along with a new Del Sol a/c belt. I'll let you know how it goes after I install it this weekend. I'll also compare my assembly to see if it is identical to my friends '96 GSR pulley assembly (if he doesn't flake on me this Sunday). I'm thinking the parts are the same, but just different part numbers? Hopefully, it'll will work so I'll have a nice cold a/c just in time for my smog ref appt. at Evergreen Valley College next week

Which belt did you use? GSR? B16? Is the JDM B16 pulley the same as the USDM pulley?
Must be nice to have a/c

i dont think it matters what pulley u used i think the one i used was either a gsr or LS pulley might even be the same...
the AC belt i used was a gsr....this was for a gsr in a EG

Thanks for the info guys I was getting worried that I might have to make a run to the wreckyard this weekend to pull an Integra pulley assembly in case the Del Sol one I just bought doesn't work

Re: (makibaka)
Update: The belt I got from the dealer was too small (supposedly a Del Sol DOHC VTEC belt)! It barely fits over yhe crank pulley and compressor pulley not even allowing the use of the a/c idler pulley. I'm going to the dealer tomorrow to confirm that they gave me the right belt. If it is the right belt, I'm going to compare it to a DC2 a/c belt. Wish me luck... this California heat is killing me

UPDATE: I bought a GSR a/c belt from Acura, and it fit perfect when I installed it today. Either the Honda dealership gave me the Del Sol belt for a SOHC or Del Sol B16 a/c belts are smaller than GSR belts...

Very good information! I would bet that the dealership gave you the wrong belt, because the guy I purchased my P54 AC bracket from used a Del Sol DOHC AC belt with his ITR motor and P54 bracket. It seems easier to just order the GSR belt, because I am not sure which years the DOHC motor was offered in the Del Sol.

Yeah, more than likely the dealership gave me the wrong belt. I should go back one day and verify the part number. Anyway, I'm glad my fumblings could benefit someone else out there. Good luck with the a/c
