If you search on the forums, you will find the shop manual for the car. I'd research that to locate the receiver drier (if this car even has one). I've never seen a R/D built into a condenser, it should be a separate item. It will have to be replaced (if there is one). I'm so used to working on older cars that had that cannister near the firewall. I just looked at my BRZ and for the life of me, I don't see one, but that doesn't mean there isn't one, I'm just not sure where it might be.......

Harbor Freight sells a vacuum pump for $99. Don't try that air operated thing they sell, it is a piece of junk.

If it is actually part of the condenser, a used one would work as long as the system was still pressurized before you removed it and you close off the ends once removed and reinstall it immediately and pull a vacuum and recharge it.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.
