So the a/c hose(with the low side fitting) from the condenser to the compressor busted and i need a new one, and every hose that i ordered seemed to NOT have the right bend at the compressor side. Any ideas on the hose that i need?

 

Have you tried one for a 99-00 Si?

seems like that would be the most obvious choice

 

Never know though... lol

 

I have tried OEM HX and an aftermarket EX hose. I haven't tried the OEM SI yet. My compressor has the fitting on it horizontally if you are in front of the motor, and my hose that busted fits perfect, can anybody with an EM1 chime in? Here is a pic.


The compressor shown in for a 00 EX.

 

im ASSUMING you have a b18b swap in a 00 civic.

if that is the case, which AC compressor are you using? the Stock D series compressor, like from an EX coupe, or are you using a 99-00 SI AC Compressor?

 

I have no idea! I bought the car with the swap already in it, from my research, it looks like it is from an SI.

if that is the case, i would assume buying an a/c hose for a 99-00 SI would be your best bet...
