okay so i bought a 1997 240sx kouki and the ac compressor was broken. figuring that it had the same motor as the 95-96 240sx i bought a 95 240sx compressor.so when i went to put the compressor iN the holes that connect the ac lines were a different size. then i did some reseach and heard that i need to change out the the ac line that runs from the firewall next to the manifold and then change out the condensor to a 95-96 condensor. my question is will the 95-96 condensor fit in my 97? and will all the lines that connect to the condensor fit up? or if you know of any other options let me know. if anyone has a 97 240sx ac compressor let me know so i dont have to deal with changing out all these lines and what not.

Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market (http://www.car-part.com/)

There's several listed, for $50-65...and junk yards ship cheap, so find one anywhere.

interesting to know that the lines are diff. from the 95 to the 97.

im assuming that the actual a/c unit should bolt up to the ka, and youd only have to switch out the lines.

although, even that sounds weird.

wouldnt it be only diff. from the s13 to the s14?

you could probably go to a local hoses and fittings shop and get the ac line adapted to fit the compressor..
