PDI Front Mounted Intercooler Kit suit Nissan GQ Patrol TD42

Price range: $1,800.00 through $1,870.00 incl. GST

Unlock the full potential of your Nissan GQ Patrol with the PDI Front Mount Intercooler Kit engineered for maximum airflow, lower exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) and serious gains in turbo diesel performance.
Designed for 4WD enthusiasts, touring setups and high performance builds, this kit delivers superior cooling efficiency compared to traditional top mount intercoolers especially under load, towing and off road conditions.
The PDI front mount design provides direct airflow through the grille, ensuring the intercooler receives the coldest possible air. This results in significantly lower intake temperatures, improved combustion efficiency and more usable power.
With large 2.5” stainless steel intercooler piping and a high efficiency bar and plate core, this is a true high performance intercooler upgrade for Nissan GQ Patrol turbo diesel engines.

Testing shows the PDI front mount dramatically outperforms both factory and aftermarket top mount intercoolers:

  • Significantly lower intake air temperatures (IATs)
  • Up to 100°C reduction in EGTs under load
  • Improved air fuel ratios, fuel economy and engine response
  • Supports high horsepower builds
  • various hot side piping designs to accommodate many different turbo and airbox combinations.
Whether you’re towing, touring or pushing your build hard, this is one of the most effective intercooler upgrades for turbo diesel GQ Patrol vehicles available.

Built for Real 4WD Conditions

  • Bar and plate intercooler core for maximum durability
  • 2.5” stainless steel pipework for strength and airflow
  • Mounted behind the grille for faster cooling and reduced heat soak
It’s no coincidence that OEM manufacturers place radiators at the front, airflow matters.

Additional Information

Suitable for both high and low mounted turbos. The standard hot side piping has a 90deg silicon reducer to go onto the turbo in the low mount configuration. If you have a high mounted turbo then we have seen people slightly adjust the stainless and change the orientation of the silicon to connect to the intercooler.

May be used on the Ford Maverick, but need to check the air con condenser clearance. We have seen a short wheel base that had the receiver drier at the front and possibly a smaller condenser, which will prohibit the installation, without changing out the air con parts to be the same as the Patrol.

Brake Booster Upgrade

PDI have the best brake booster upgrade on the market for the GQ. Unlike the factory unit, it is dual diaphragm, but we have also increased the diameter of the booster to increase surface area and effectiveness. This has allowed many GQ series owners to be able to lock up their brakes on systems where it was otherwise impossible. Our booster increases the mechanical advantage able to be applied to the master cylinder by 50% and has transformed the vehicle for many GQ owners. Either can be purchased by clicking HERE.
