Default A/C Compatibility HR vs DE

Thanks in Advance.....
We got our 07' 350Z Touring Roadster from our neighbor, Collette Davis, which some may know as Adam LZ's Girlfriend. Its was her first drift car, before the Barbie car. She never really did much with it, but did get some good parts installed. While my intent is not to drift it, it will maintain all the goodies. It will me more of a weekend car meet car. We have several Musclecars and a couple 240's that we get to alternate with, so this needs to be a nice streetable car. Has welded diff, but I'm used to that, but were in Florida, and except for this time of year, a car without AC, especially a vert with a black roof, is not a summer car. This brings to the topic of this post.

We know the HR package in this cars A/C has differences than a DE car. The A/C from the firewall forward had been removed, but all from the firewall back is still intact. The sellers mechanic is going to reinstall the system if we can find the parts. They will even go take it out of the parts car if we find one close enough to ensure its good to put in. Problem is, finding a HR car thats not had the front end wrecked. But, we have found DE cars with the parts. Question is, is it the entire A/C system that s different, or perhaps just the compressor and Engine bracket? If that were the case, it would greatly simplify things, as getting the compressor and bracket from a parts house is pretty affordable and readily available. And, I would guess the Infinity would use the same basic parts as the Z?

Thanks, to listing, aand appreciate anyone that has any insight.

What it looks like now.......

The look I want with a new wrap, still using the wheels already on the car. Plus will add a splitter and wing.
