Default Swapped gs300 Ac question.

I have a 2jgte vvti swap on my 99 gs300. Ac compressor died. Do I just order a 99vvti ge compressor? This is the way I understood it on the supra forums. Thanks for input.

I dont know if this helps, but the GS300 compressor's part number is 88320-3A180 but the Aristo's is 88320-3A181

Either way, I see this guy up for sale:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/JDM-TOYOTA-2JZ-GTE-DENSO-A-C-COMPRESSOR-SUPRA-ARISTO-2JZ-2JZGTE-AC-447200-9815-/181692667783?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a4dba1787&vxp=mtr
I'm looking at the schematics for both and they're the exact same pictures and all the exact same rebuild parts and part numbers, except the complete compressors for both have different part numbers as a unit, kinda weird.

Funny thing though, I put the Aristo part number on ebay, and nothing but Lexus compressors pop up...

Awesome thanks guys!! Yea Ac try's to kick on, the clutch moves for split second and then stops. Took it to my dad's dealership and the tech said the compressor was shot. At least it tried to kick on so the wiring is at least correct lol
