Have you considered HPI's s14 Radiator Rescue condenser?

I don't think they ever made them them for s13s but from what I remember when I went down this rabbit hole is that they designed the condenser to cool as well as oem while blocking less air to the radiator. No idea how a rhd s14 condenser would work with lhd s13 AC lines. I'd assume you could flip it around/upsidedown and maybe get some small conversion lines so the factory lhd s13 lines hook up and if you're already modifying an s14 condenser into an s13 that really doesn't seem like too much more work. And the condenser is probably actually going to be designed for r134a and it'll probably be alot easier to just buy a new one than having to find and probably ship a used kouki 180sx from japan and still deal with the rhd issues.

I found the measurements for the hi pressure/low pressure houses on rhd japan so you could measure yours and at least know if the fittings will physically fit
