Question a/c and sr20's

I plan to keep a/c and power steering when puting swaping in the sr20det. Does anyone know if the stock 240sx a/c compressor will line up correctly with the new engine. I heard a rumor that only the 91-94 twin cam 240's will do this. Also, would I need any other modifications to keep both a/c and power steering? Thanks for the help.

After seeing that 30 people have viewed the thread and none respond to it, it must mean that everyone has no a/c or power steering in their 240. Wow, you all must be very strong and sweaty people.

89-90==> need 91-94 P/s lines and A/c does not bolt up

91-94==> P/s and A/C hooks up. hte A/c bolt will not all hook up but the ones that fit will be enough to hold it in place

My 90 is running power steering without late model lines. http://sr20.hybrids.jp/installations...wap/index.html

OK this is what i did yesterday....
my car: 92' 240sx le dohc
engine: 98 180sx

both my KA and SR have A/C but the connectors are different.
so i have to take both hoses (KA and SR), cut them and weld so that i have on one side the stock connection leading to another hose and the other side will have the SR connection going to the a/c.
(hope you can understand this, cause im having trouble describing it)

the other connector on the a/c comes from the (a/c rad) and unless you use the one from the SR i'll have to do the same thing with the connection so it lines up.
about the power steering, i think it all lined up for me, but then im not sure at the moment if i finished hooking it all up yet (im in the end stages of my sr swap)
