AC Condensor and Water Tank

Whenever the AC system is opened for a condensor replacement, it is always essential to replace the reciever/drier too?

I am asking because my cheapy Spectra condensor keeps leaking freon. Does Koyo make AC condensors for 3rd gens? If anyone knows, feel free to recommend other aftermarket condensor brands.

Thanks in advance.

if the system is open for more than 5 minutes, it's HIGHLY recommended to replace the reciever drier

haha, I gotta have it, Mr. Goon. It is a luxury car to me first before a 4dsc, and so I need to stay cool in the summer heat, esp. with leather. Also as you may know, female passengers will whine and complain if not comfortable. I just wonder if there is another quality aftermarket alternative as Spectra quality is extremely disappointing.
