How many AC different condenser exists?

Hi guys,

I'm kind of confused with all these different AC systems. I thought they were two models, Denso and Mana. I'm looking to buy a used condenser to replace mine but I have hard time finding the right one. I have two at home, the one I want to replace that comes from an '93 Canadian FD LHD and another one from a 1995 JDM. They do not have the same inlet and outlet threads. A potential seller sent me pics of a third one which seems different too. So how many models exist and what is the best way to differentiate them?

Anybody can help me clear that up?

Thanks.

Buy some copper tube, brazing rods, and a map gas torch at Canadian Tire. Then braze a condensor on to your AC system. Or buy a flare tool and some fitting from Home Depot for a less permanent option. Vaccum the air out of the system, charge it, and you're ready to go.

It doesn't matter what kind of condenser you use as long as the condensor supports the systems output. I used to build single stage, auto cascade, and two stage cascade coolers and all that really matters is finding a condensor that is big enough to take the load.
