90-92 Nissan Stanza AC Compressor Compatible with VE or VG?

Does anyone know offhand if a AC Compressor assembly from a 90-92 Nissan Stanza would be compatible with a VE or VG? I have a genuine oem new Calsonic AC compressor with clutch assembly I'd like to sell. Part # wasn't much help and Courtesy couldn't help much either. Thanks.

I can tell just visually it's definitely not the same as a VE compressor. Can't speak for any VG models

I checked Courtesy and Nissanpartzone already, nothing that indicates its interchangeable, but it's been my experience where parts are physically compatible but #'s say otherwise. I remember a few members in the past that have/had Stanza's which is why I asked.

93-94 are automatically out because they're R-134a.

But the R-12 compressors on the VG look completely different from that one. Both high and low ports are on the end of the compressor instead of the middle. I can't recall the make and model.

that design does not look familiar to me at all. You're talking about a compressor for a 4cyl engine, and whether it would fit on a VG. The compressors aren't even the same between the Z31 and the 3rd gen Maxima which have identical engines, so they certainly won't be the same for Stanza to Maxima.

For reference, the VG compressor looks more like this. Both ports next to each other on the rear edge of the compressor.. not in the middle area of the side like those.
