13b-re with factory options?
I would like to build a 13b-re FC but I absolutely want to keep the FC factory A/C. (because I like A/C, and the system is all new). Is it possible to fit that easily on the 13b-re engine?
I've been searching a lot to find somebody that did it but couldn't find any information. I would also like to know if I can easily remove the engine while keeping the A/C in the engine bay. I changed an engine once, but too many years ago to remember that.
Thank you.

Different belt setups. I would try to use whatever comes with the RE and hook lines into that pump.
Using stock FC belts and pullys on an RE would be a downgrade.

Thank you Banzai racing for your quick reply! I was pretty sure it was bolt-on, but I wanted to be sure before I start removing everything from the engine bay.
I don't have the power steering anymore, it was removed by the previous owner, so my only concern was about the A/C.
I would also like to know what should I do with the FC factory wiring harness... Can I keep it and start from there, or should I buy another one custom made for that application. It is like new (was changed 3 years ago by the previous owner.)
I am currently reading your complete built thread whil I write this, so I may answer my own questions that way...
My engine comes from you by the way! It was in a crate never used.
