Default A/C into an S13 w/RB20DET

I bought an S13 with no A/C. No compressor, no mounting brackets, no lines. Heater and everything under the dash works, but I don't really need a heater, here in Tampa.For low cost and easy installation, what should I get? An RB compressor so I don't need custom brackets? A KA compressor, cheaper and might not need custom lines? Whadda I do, whadda I do?

Nope, I'd need a custom bracket, or duct tape. I still had it recommended to me by Some Guy.

does xat have the ability to weld a/c lines? i just did a dual cam swap, lookin to get the dual cam fittings put on the single cam lines... so i don't have to get new EVERYTHING, ya know?!

PS: i had my friend try with his heliarc welder, and he burned through the practice lines everytime...very touchy & fragile!
