well i got it to fit perfect with the bracket i bought from a guy on ebay..the only problem i'm dealing with now is the ac hose..i got one hose to fit perfectly but the other "gsr" hose would not fit..here's a picture of what i'm talking about:




is there any other a/c hose i can use to make this fit nicely without having to chop up the current one i have?? the long hose i got have too many bend to it..plus it doesn't have this pressure valve on it like the other civic i have at home..one have a blue cap with a letter "L" and the other have "H" on it.


i don't know if the second hose require to have that presure valve or watever u call it or not..

 

Yes, you need both a high pressure and low pressure port. The high pressure port should be located near the p/s fluid reservoir, if I am not mistaken.

 

can i make a custom pressure port?? man this kinda sux..

 

bump

anyone??

 

Hope Mods don't mind i put this here.

i know some of you will say this fall under the Engine Swap forum but, it's been there awhile and no-one answer my question..hope i can get more input from here..

97 gsr into 95 civic sedan..
a/c compressor mounted up great..gsr a/c hose that goes to condensor only fit one..the other doesn't fit..
what hose can i buy to make this work?? i need both pressure valve to work in order to get a flush and refill.

What the hell happened to your high pressure hardlines?
And yes, you need them to have functioning A/C.

My recommendation would be to take this mess to an A/C specialist who can fabricate a hose with the correct fitting on the compressor end. And considering how mangled the hardlines are, I wouldn't be surprised if they begin to leak.

EDIT: Having merged the threads and seen all the original pics... my suggestion is to re-plumb the entire high-pressure loop by using new Civic hard lines and a custom hose to connect to the A/C compressor.

 

Merged and moved (again) to Engine Swaps.

Please...DO NOT create duplicate threads in multiple forums; it's an absolute nightmare for us to clean up. :a:

 

^^^that line is from the GSR line dude..it come with the gsr compressor, which come with the engine when i bought it..

my car is a 95 civic..that's y it wouldn't fit.. nor does it have that pressure valve on it..

 

a/c specialist?? where do i look or what kind of shop do those kind of thing anyway??

 

Could've fooled me.

The point that I (and Provocateur) have been trying to make is that the high pressure fitting should be at the end of the hardline, near the centerline of the radiator support.

Since I can't find the end of the hardline in your photos, I can't help you re-orient those lines to get the fitting back where it should be.

Which is why I suggested that you re-plumb the entire high pressure side of the A/C system.
