Remove the wire loom hold-downs from the
front of the radiator core support. Remove the
brackets securing the power steering cooler
lines to the core support.
• G35 Vehicles, All: Remove the foam
inner bumpers on the driver and passen-
ger sides of the Charge Air Cooler mount-
ing location. Locate and remove the power
steering hard line brackets. Cut the thread-
ed section off of the bracket just removed.
Install the threaded piece behind the core
support and clamp the hard lines to the
front of the core support as shown in 
Fig. 8-a.
• G35 Vehicles, Automatic Only: Remove
the two rubber lines from the transmission
cooler. Remove the two rubber transmis-
sion cooler lines from the junction on the
passenger’s side frame rail. Remove the
hard lines with the rubber lines still
attached from the vehicle. Once the trans-
mission cooler has been repositioned,
connect the cooler to the junction using
the rubber line provided. Secure with facto-
ry clamps.
B.
Using the supplied adhesive backed foam to
insulate the power steering cooler from the
radiator, position it as shown in Fig. 8-b.
Install the snap connectors on the free end.
Cut off any excess that would interfere with
radiator fan operation.
C.
Rotate any clamps that are pointing toward
the front of the vehicle so that they will not
contact the charge air cooler. Use the sup-
plied zip-ties to secure the wire loom to the
air temp sensor and the power steering hose.
D.
Temporarily attach the two supplied matching
metal brackets to the bottom of the radiator
core support using two of the factory splash
pan screws. (See Fig. 8-c.)

Attach the remaining metal bracket to the
charge cooler using the supplied 1/4" x 3/4"
hardware. (See Fig. 8-d.)
F.
Install the cooler in front of the radiator and
rotate the metal brackets to support it as
shown.
G.
Mark the plastic panels on either side of the
cooler for passage of the Ø2-1/2" cooler
tubes. Remove the cooler and drill a horizon-
tal 2.5" hole (minimum) through each of the
plastic panels. (If the vehicle has foam blocks
that interfere with the discharge ducts,
remove the foam from the vehicle.)
H.
Reinstall the cooler. Connect the upper cooler
bracket to two of the factory screws that
secure the front bumper. Align cooler for best
fit and tighten the four screws that attach the
bracket.
