crx air conditioning?

You have to use a different bracket to fit the ac to your motor. I personally used a hasport bracket. I've heard about using stock honda ones but I'm not sure how that works. My car came with ac however so I'm not exactly sure what else you need.

I was gonna run the crx compressor that came with the car except it's seized and only smokes when I put a belt on it.

I personally would use a crx compressor....

i use the hasport bracket on my b16a, works good AHHH A/C love it...but id think you need a crx compressor to make it work, are you asking what you need to make it work?? if your car came with a/c b4 then you dont need anything els just the hasport bracket and one of the lines if you cracked one... i blew one of mine from the headers, was $120 i think from honda...but well worth the money.

I was luckly enough to get a new compressor with my 89 si, when I bought the car.

the ac has been blowing about 37-45 degrees the last 3 years. My condensor blew up easy fix then got it recharged R12 for the win!

good luck getting it fixed
