if your car had a/c before the swap, you can use your d-series compressor. all you need is a p54 del sol dohc vtec bracket. and your compressor will bolt right up. that's the easy way. i heard of ppl getting custom a/c lines to fit the b-series compressor but i didn't really get into depth with it. hope that helps....

You can also use the AC bracket & pulley from the CRV to retain you D series compressor. It is much cheaper than the Del Sol VTEC one, and much easier to get. You'll have to do a little research to get the exact part number...

Also, you can convert your R-12 system to R-134 without replacing all the lines. You just need to have the system flushed & filled w/ the proper compressor oil & have new R134 service fittings put on...

if you have the stock a/c lines and a b-series comp. then no the lines won't fit.

92 93 civics has r-12. 94 95 has r134a.
