^ Where are you located?

 

One more top view I took through the radiator cover

 

Ohh nice pic dude, looks much clearer now, I'll see if I have one as well (I know I've already said it before) but I'm in the process of moving houses so I'm a bit busy

 

US-spec G35s here and i have it. It's about 8-10" wide by roughly half that high, it's in front of the lower portion of the radiator on the passenger side, probably because of the ICC.

 

I'm curious ... trace the hose on top and tell us where it goes.

 

08 Journey and I have one. I always assumed it was an oil cooler.

 

Thats cool so not only the GTR got one lol

 

I can confirm this as Transmission oil cooler, i went to the dealer and checked it out.

 

Sweet , so can this be upgraded simply by buying an aftermarket transmission cooler core? or would we need the whole kit to go with it? i.e. can we use the existing wires?

 

Yes, all you need is the core, you can use the existing hose if they're flexible, but if they are molded in special way like radiator hose's then you'll need to find a way to make them fit into the new core.
I might go with a bigger core, or buy B&M cooler with fan, last night i was racing in my car, after 3-5 runs the transmission shifts got different because of the oil got hot.

 

Sounds sweet, I'll wait until you do it lol I'll let you be the Guinea pig

also looking at the pic above it looks like the upper hose is only being secured by one of those crimple grip thingies, not too sure how the bottom one looks. I'll try and see tonight

 

I went for oil change today and noticed that we have that cooler from Post#13 on our car too.

 

I've measured our OEM transmission oil cooler and it was 10"x4.5"x1, i've ordered B&M transmission oil cooler which is 8"x11"x1.5" which is double the size, i'm sure there well be cooling results, but i don't know how much.
I was reading about transmission oil coolers and that cars without them can get their oil temp up to 230-250f when WOT, so i think it's a must for everyone tracking or racing with 5AT.

Here's the B&M i've ordered:

Damn looks sweet dude, can't wait to see it installed

 

It'll arrive this week, and i'll install it once i get it, the problem is i don't know which hose is the inlet or the outlet, but i'll find a way to fit it on the stock mounts of the old oem cooler, i guess i'll cut and trim the stock hose's.
