sorry if this has been posted a billion times, if i buy a swapped car (b-series into...mid 90's civic) with no a/c, do i need a/c equiptment to match the car or the engine?

 

You will need the A/C compressor specifically for a B-series motor.

 

what about the rest of it, will the mounts from the b-series work in the civic? or do i need the whole setup from the civic and the b-series compressor? would they work together? or the whole b-series setup with civic mounts? would that work?

 

anyone?

 

would it work if i used everything from the original car except the compressor, and used a b-series compressor, would that work?

 

hmmmmm?

 

anybody?

 

bump

No- you want to get either a p54 or a crv ac compressor bracket, and then run this-

thanks for the help, but i was hoping to go a little cheaper if at all possible, if i found all the stock a/c parts that were original to the car from someone who had pulled them from their own car, and a compressor to go with the motor, would that work together?

 

no- you want the compressor that came stock with the d series. im in the same boat as you- i want to retrofit ac. What im doing is buying the bracket then finding someone who pulled theirs, and using everything except the bracket

 

get a del sol vtec bracket or a crv bracket (maybe p7j). you can then use everything from a civic. compressor, condensor, drier, lines, everything.

 

Would the del sol bracket be just for b16's? its a gsr motor so wouldnt i need the gsr bracket?
thanks for all the help guys

 

no gsr bracket wont work

 

ok, just so were clear, were talking about the compressor bracket, right?

YES. We are ALL talking about the Compressor Bracket.


The stock GSR Compressor bracket will NOT work with your stock, D-series, A/C compressor.


You're options are to use a Del Sol VTEC compressor bracket or a CRV compressor bracket with ALL stock to the car, D-series, A/C components.

Here are the parts numbers for both.
CRV - 38930-P7J-000 - $64
Del Sol - 38930-P30-000 - $104

Prices are from Majestic Honda.(Click on Name for link) Great place to find and buy cheap OEM parts.

 

alright, thanks a lot everyone. i really appreciate all the help
