i have the crosscountry with fan on the underside of ic. very happy with quality though a bit pricey. for better performance and reliability a bigger exhaust, snorkel, and definitely nad it as the GU111 is one of those grenade's.
3lt GU 111 Wagon 2 inch lift,3in Taipan exhaust, cross country intercooler,catch can,EGR blocked, dawes and needle valve,Pyro/boost gauge ARB lockers,steinbaurer chip, long range tank, s/s water tank, draws, warn winch, and other stuff.
@ Rumcajs Great price seeing the cores are only $60 to buy $320 to weld is way over the top IMO but what can you do.
As for CC cooler cant justify that price for what you'll get in return,
I used the diesel Smart intercooler, {forum sponser} Pressure tested to 60 psi and 5 year warranty, very happy

04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
what ever ic you look at get one with welded tanks as the Nissan tanks are only crimped together with a o-ring and will leak over time.

Well, considering that Mr Nissan is asking ~$1200 for its POS of an intercooler than the Ebay unit is a winner don't care how much is/are cores. I can't weld ally like that so I "happily" pay I suppose for Mr Nissan sloppy el cheapo assembly/works.Originally Posted by threedogs
For some reason "Diesel Smart" intercooler looks suspiciously identical to the Ebay unit. Same price?
I have CC intercooler and I'm extremely happy with it, at the time the choice was between $1,200 for Nissan POS or $1,200 for the top of the line aftermarket unit. I'm sure I'd be seriously considering that Ebay unit instead had it been available than.
Cheers

I installed an eBay unit today & it is doing its job no probs. $ 375 plus freight 5 year warranty too !
I like that it's welded not crimped & has more cooling surface area than the std Nissan pos ic.
Cheers

Hi Waza
I'm looking at a similar intercooler, I'm interested to find out how yours is going.

I installed a ARE intercooler 4 years ago , has much better flow rate the OME and larger cooling area all welded, have had no probs and EGT`s dropped off by 50 degrees. Very happy well worth the money.
NO HILL TO STEEP
NO RUT TO DEEP
Having the ASE for nearly two years now - I would never buy another one. If I had to do it again I would get my original one re cored and welded, plus I would add a fan. I have finally sorted out the ASE one. I got hold of an IC mounting bracket out of a CRD (mine is a direct injection) and modified it to accept the IC. A lot of mucking around but all is now good.
