This very clean GU Patrol has an intercooler upgrade fitted to the top of it's ZD30.
Having an intercooler upgrade is a great way of managing heat thats generated from the turbo while towing that big caravan, or driving along low range 4WD tracks.
The electric fan on the under side of the intercool kicks in during those times when there's not much natural air flow coming through the bonnet scoop, to help with the management of those turbo high temperatures.
Your ZD30 wont necessarily gain more power from an intercooler upgrade, but you will have a more consistent power when your engine is working hard up hills.
Without an intercooler upgrade during those times, the heat thats going through the standard intercooler will not cope and engine power will start coming off.
Have you had an intercooler upgrade on your ZD30?
Or other models and how have you found the difference?

I completed this upgrade on my factory intercooled TD42 recently. The new HPD intercooler brought my EGT's down significantly. Even though I had a dyno tune done with the original intercooler giving me great numbers there was a noticeable difference with the new intercooler installed. I believe it was definitely worth the money. Thanks for another great video Tim!

G'day mate, Thats great results you have gained from installing a larger intercooler. They do make a difference with keeping EGT's under control. Thanks for your reply mate. Cheers Tim.

Just curious how the new mounting frame goes for that big intercooler....I have looked at the big HPD unit, the frame looks very close to the positive battery terminal....that is why I have been considering just the smaller HPD unit, as it is quite a bit thicker than the factory unit, and it has the fan...and there are no modifications required to the bonnet. Think there is a new scoop also with a bigger opening....
@timbates4wdadventures

Is there a reason you did not go for a front mounted intercooler instead? The cool air from the front is going to do a better job than the hot air from the engine bay?
@timbates4wdadventures
@timbates4wdadventures 3 года назад
G'day Andrew, Front mounted intercoolers are more efficient than a top mount. But its getting all the plumbing out the front to connect up a front mount is where a lot of cost would come in. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim.

All this is because of engine tune. If you don't need to tune your engine, you don't need bigger intercooler. Engineers in Nissan are not stupid. Ask yourself if you need to tune your engine. 9 out of 10, you won't need to. Use money on holiday going around Oz, instead of the new intercooler.

We’re the temperatures taken whilst driving or lifting the bonnet in the workshop with the flir camera, or was there temps taken via gauges on the inputs and outputs whilst driving? Because if not the bigger intercooler was only acting as a bigger static heat sink.
@timbates4wdadventures

Agreed, all that's being measured is the temp of the actual intercooler it's self, not the air flowing within it.. It's a poor comparison.

@@christurner68 We could have done this more scientific for sure and we new from the start it was not going to be the be-all-end-all comparison but the drop in temps from the big boy intercooler still shows a meaningful drop in temp and for the videos purpose, the test worked.
