Default a/c condenser

Hey I am a new comer to the import seen, I have owned mustangs my whole life and still have a 87 5.0. but I now see why so many people love there hondas, they take alot of abuse and keep going I have a 93 civic Ex with the 1.6. My a/c condenser has a crack in it and it cant be fixed. I have looked all over for the right condenser. I took one out of another 93 civic lx and the fitting where the high pressure hose hooked on was different. And the the numbers on the top of the condenser are 13 and the one i got off the lx is 14. my question is can i only get a condenser out of another 93 ex with the 1.6L?

Try a radiator supply shop.

Not much more to say.

I can't answer your question completely. But keep in mind that during this generation of Civic, there was a switch from R12 to R134a. Given the properties of R134a, a more efficient condensor is needed for it to work right. So I would figure the condensor changed along with the refrigerant.

yeah the car has the sticker under the hood for 134A. so would this condenser maybe be able to be found out of a later civic that got the new 134a in it?
