If that $650 includes labor, hell yeah it's a good deal. You need the entire interior portions, including the control box, the actual cooling unit, door control, any wiring and ducting- some of which may be there. The HA section of the FSM lists the components.
Then you need the entire hose/pipe assys in the engine bay, AC relay, condensor, fan, receiver/dryer, compressor, and a special mount for the USDM compressor to mount to the SR block.
Then you have to modify the SR wiring and adapt to the 240SX wiring, (ECU) and man, that is a big job. I doubt the local AC shop down the road would be able to complete this job unless they specialize in SR/240 cars.
Yeah, 650 would be a good deal in my opinion if you are starting from zero.
