I'm sure it's possible, though I haven't heard of any aftermarket companies making a custom bracket for it yet, I could be wrong though, ur best bet would be to get a small sohc civic a/c compressor and make a custom bracket to make it fit.

there are a few Civics and integras with K swaps and A/C.. they are custom jobs...

Hybrid racing made a kit and they are testing it right now.. will go on sale soon... basicall they sell you the lines, you get the EK condenser and some other crap and charge it..

like these lines ( for DC integra)



Basically, it is going to be like having stock A/C.

The system will be as user friendly as possible. Hook up a few wires, extend the plugs in your engine bay to the compressor and condensor fan, get in the car and slide the AC **** to 1, 2, 3, or 4.. depending on how cold you want to get. It will work like a factory AC system

I know, I am getting one for next summer.. this summer is gone!

I also thought that you could use AN fittings welded to the line, And run stainless hose if your in for that "cleaner" look.

dxcoupe;

What you said about stainless braided lines is a bit misleading!

I think you are refering to the hose that aeroquip sells for AC systems. The hose is a barrier type hose (for AC usage) and requires the specific hose ends.

I'm talking about normal stainless braided hose, which would have to be most likely teflon lined because of the chemicals,pressure, and temperature.

If you have ends I know a company out in so cal that makes custom AC lines and other lines as well. I had a high and low line made for a different swap, cost about $80
