Front Mount Intercooler Kit – Nissan Patrol ZD30 CRD

Unlock improved power, torque, and reliability from your Nissan Patrol GU ZD30 3.0L Common Rail Diesel with the Demon Pro Parts Front Mount Intercooler Kit. Designed specifically for the ZD30 CRD platform, this complete intercooler upgrade delivers dramatically improved charge-air cooling, reduced heat soak, and stronger, more consistent performance—especially under load or sustained boost.

Unlike the restrictive factory top-mount intercooler, which sits directly above the engine and is prone to heat soak, the Demon Pro Parts front mount intercooler is positioned for maximum airflow. The result is cooler intake air temperatures, improved combustion efficiency, and enhanced drivability across the entire rev range.

Proven Performance Gains

Extensive in-house dyno testing confirms the benefits of this front mount setup. When tested back-to-back against the factory top-mount intercooler at 24psi on a Spartan ZD30 DI turbo, the Demon Pro Parts front mount delivered:

• Up to 120Nm increase in torque at 1700rpm

• Peak torque of 600Nm

• An additional 30 rear-wheel horsepower across the rev range

• Just 1psi maximum pressure drop across the intercooler core

These gains translate to faster turbo response, stronger low-RPM pulling power, and the ability to maintain peak power for longer periods—ideal for touring, towing, and performance-focused builds.

High-Quality Construction & Fitment

The intercooler features a high-efficiency bar-and-plate core, engineered for excellent heat dissipation while maintaining a compact profile. Precision-designed one-piece aluminium intercooler piping optimises airflow, reduces turbulence, and ensures long-term durability under high boost conditions.

This kit is engineered for minimal body trimming and is compatible with most winch systems, making it a practical and effective upgrade for both road-going and off-road Patrols.

Kit Includes

• Front mount intercooler

• Vehicle-specific mounting brackets

• Power steering cooler upgrade

• Precision aluminium intercooler pipework

If you’re looking to improve cooling efficiency, throttle response, and power delivery in your ZD30 Patrol, the Demon Pro Parts Front Mount Intercooler Kit delivers proven results backed by real-world testing.

Note:

To fit to Auto Vehicles, the transmission cooler lines need to be re-routed. Please see installation instructions for more details.
