A/C and P/S Pumps Needed From JDM Clip?

[rico05]

I am looking at a CA w/o the P/S or the A/C compressor. Will the units off of my 91 S13 bolt right on? Also, what belts can I use? I assume CA18E ones will work? Thanks in advance. If all goes well, I may have my CA in a week:)

nope... A/C and P/S are not direct bolt on affairs... some people have ghetto rigged some USDM ones to work, but the only one's I know of used 89-90 stuff...

for belts just take the ones you have to autozone and match them up properly... no usdm ones are exactly correct as far as I know

I got the proper belt #s in the car, ill get them in a bit. Its for the PS and Alt/waterpump. I havent done the A/C since the compressor doesnt line up.

So if I were to buy a clip, with an AC condenser and all, would it not work in my car? Would I be able to do some easy-ghetto rigging?

[NeedCAforS13]

if you have the CA stuff you are fine, its just using the KA stuff that's hard/doesn't work well...

So, basically I have to go through the same bs the Zenki S13 guys have to in order to get A/C and P/S w/ an SR? Do most people run without them? I really don't feel like screwing around with that crap, but I live in central Texas, and summers can see a heat index of 110+ easy and humidity way above 90% so I HAVE to have A/C...

[NeedCAforS13]

kind of... your 91-93 p/s lines are correct if you use the CA pump:) and I don't think anyone is running A/C on their CA18's (and alot of us live in Florida which is worse than texas man!) I'm going to try my best to run both a/c and p/s but I might have to make custom a/c lines... we'll see here soon:)

I value A/C in the middle of summer time... My first car didn't have A/C and i did a road trip back east one July... Big mistake. I'll never have a car without A/C again if it's a daily

[rico05]

So the main issue is the lines and not the CA compressor for the A/C hunh? man, it is almost worth an SR to have A/C:(

[Nismo1182]

Well. the 89-90 KA AC compressor BOLTS ON to the CA bracket. Only problem is, the belt pulley on the KA AC compressor stick out like 1/2"-1" so when you put a belt on, it might pop off. But all my lines are still on, I just have to recharge the system and maybe have a custom bracket made so everything lines up better.

[rico05]

Well, come to find out the motorset has the A/C compressor and lines. How can this be made to work on my car?

[NeedCAforS13]

you should be able to use your USDM lines... not 100% on that though I plan on having custom ones made with my factory fittings if the stock lines don't fit. Doesn't seem like it would be too expensive:)
