[laokid]

[bigdare23]

you do know that your a/c and heat aren't connected right...

[laokid]

o ok thanks i didnt know

[DeeAOne]

brackets? compressor, lines, etc.
the condensor in front of the radiator.

well thats where it was on my first gen, not sure about 2nd gen.

[Barefoot]

do u want ever piece or the easy and semi easy to remove pieces.

[csmiths]

its simple start un bolting, the only pain is the condenser which really isnt that hard, i did mine, but my motor was out

[laokid]

probably start with the lines, then the compressor, then those steel lines, then the condensor fan. what behind the dash and those wires hanging from the compressor

[laokid]

semi first,

[csmiths]

there are no wires you need to remove, its all in the engine bay

[yunglaosta]

easiest way is to break ur ac condensor and just leave everything in lol. ur heat will still work though

[stubbyda91]

just unbolt your line on the compressor, let all the 134a drain out. tilt your radiator forward you can get the condencer out that way (trust me i did mine) and literally its a unbolting experance just unbolt everything connected to a/c lines brackets compressor yadda yadda yadda, dont worry about the evaporator and what not under the dash it dont matter if all thats still there, yes your heat will still work :goodjob:

So you had a perfectly working a/c but you took it off?? Why?

x2

let us hope it was not for the insane jdm horsepower gains that can be just as easily achieved by hitting the switch to the AC on the dashboard...

x3 ^^^ you dont even need the switch!! honda installed a genius clutch in the compressor anyways.. when your throttle opens all the way, it cuts off.. but to each his own i guess..

[xdavidscenex]

i once heard you can use C4.

[laokid]

compressor locked up plus engine bay looks cleaner , i know ima be suffer in the spring,summer lol

you use the switch if you don't want it on at all...

i prefer to just add parts and gain power to make up for the lousy 10hp drag the compressor puts on the engine. AC helps keep the interior cleaner.

hmm i guess the condensor fan doesnt work now, i guess i can remove that2 ?
