2005 Civic - What do I need to replace with new compressor??
While I am in there planning to replace the compressor, what all should I consider replacing at the same time?
...........drier, expansion valve, and condenser??

Might not have to do the condenser, if you open the system and see a bunch of trash in the lines then I would do the condenser. Make sure you flush the lines out and add the correct amount of AC oil.
Are you sure the compressor is bad?
Sometimes the clutch wears out and the air gap is too big. Just need to pull a shim from the clutch and it will work normally again.

If the system is left open/empty for more than a day the drier should be replaced.
In your other thread we asked for pressure readings to verify what was wrong. You never gave them to us.
