looked but havent found a definitive answer.

i have all my stock AC lines and compressor from my KA-e on the car and the system is still active.

does that compressor just bolt right up to the ca bracket? what do i need for my ac to work??

need to know asap motors going in today!

If it's a CA18DET A/C compressor, it should bolt right up to the CA18DET's A/C bracket with no issues. As for lines, you will need to get them custom made to accomodate your setup. As for wiring, it's pretty straight forward if you've been reading and following the FSM as well as paying close attention to your engine harness which has the plug for the A/C compressor on it. If you fail to do any of the forementioned, your a/c will not work.
