Installing a cold case on my G8 GT, that I immediately regretted 🙄.

[@DillionBerry-h7i]

Part number for the rad cap that worked

[@FunnyMuffler]

Just had mine break at the top snout. Thought about getting the all aluminum one, but glad I didn't after seeing this video. _FMG_

[@Moe_Nation]

I ended up having to return that cold case. After a year it had a small hole in it. Stick with stock or find one better then cold case.

[@davidtranmedia5112]

My 17 ss forged fully built motor and turbo build. Literally my performance shop he is very good & honest at what he does. I believe that after 40k in upgrades I didn't mind a couple more buck for a cold case which I didn't mind at all. But he is so honest he turned me away from 4 or 5 products that I wanted. One of those products was the cold case. He told me yes better as in full aluminum. But not as efficient and doesn't cool the car better them oem one. And that's with 1500hp. So I see what you mean about buy this one time and forget. But I have heard horror stories about the cold case after he told me not to get it. But hopefully it works out for you bro. It looks sick af

[@Moe_Nation]

The cold case works but too much of a hassle for the cost of it. Honestly i think it keeps my temp the same as the oem one. Just looks better lol

[@davidtranmedia5112]

@@Moe_Nation yeh that's what my guy said. So he steered me away from it. But honestly I live the way it looks so much lol

Nice video, yeah these cars always has something wrong from time to time we just have to deal and keep moving forward.

[@Moe_Nation]

Yeah, but still great cars. haha

[@duanebroussardtopdogg1292]

@@Moe_Nation yes indeed I agree

[@paulbusick5332]

You can probably add oil cooler lines and run them to the cooler on the cold case. My oil runs about 220 - 230 degrees F, but I’m running a Magnusson supercharger

[@dannysnt7264]

The hose few off because the radiator neck lip broke off its most likely inside the hose on its way to the motor and the thermostat if you didn't find it anywhere.. Time to replace or put double clamps on... the screw kind not the pressure ones

[@Moe_Nation]

I'm thinking it fell off somewhere on the road. Ive check inside the water pump and the hose.

[@G8HUB]

Same exact thing happen to me happen when I was on the freeway😅

[@Moe_Nation]

CraZyyyyy

[@johngray8321]

Push the tabs down onto the cooling fan tabs and problem fixed . Another issue they did have is sometimes the lower neck on the radiator isnt angled right .

[@Moe_Nation]

I read about the lower neck issue as well. Glad I didnt have that one.

[@johngray8321]

@@Moe_Nation yea unfortunately I did have that issues but easily resolved

[@Moe_Nation]

@@johngray8321 did you get a new one or you have to do some custom work ?

[@johngray8321]

@@Moe_Nation had the neck cut , turned , then rewelded it . Yea it does suck that an upgraded much more expensive radiator would not be a direct fit

[@Jnibbs24]

Stock ones are engineered to last. Many cold case with that intake had to notch out the bottom so it wouldn't melt, so not only do you have to fab the fans to fit to not rattle you'll have to get a different intake. Not sure what the hype of the cold case is... Aluminum will always get hotter than a plastic one

[@josephchapa9085]

Did you have to change the fittings for the transmission?

[@Moe_Nation]

No. I have a transcooler

[@xsellx7707]

Mishimoto radiator ftw

[@Moe_Nation]

I saw that one as well, hope the fitment isn’t like this one.

[@paulhill2200]

That happens to me I think all g8 Radiator do that use a hose clamp

[@Moe_Nation]

Yeah I actually found a video right after this on someone elses g8 that did the same thing. Weird how that happens

[@teddiepegues3261]

I had to replace the one on my g8 week after I got It my stock radiator had the same broken tip.. put in a cold case and cap was kinda weird but fit.. where the clips are you’re supposed to just press down the metal tabs onto the plastic tabs with a flat head or something and it won’t budge but I’ve had it for a year and a half and it’s been straight but I know that tip won’t break lmao 😂

[@wcoffee1979]

thanks for posting this, I was gonna do the same 'upgrade'. I believe the part # for the cold case is LMP5005A. Do you have the part number for a cap that will work with it?

[@Moe_Nation]

For the cap i dont. I think i just got lucky with the cap because it didn’t make my stock one. But i think i can call autozone have them look up which one i bought.

[@lestermoore9863]

Thank God u made this video

[@mat334]

I’m pretty sure Only 1 fan runs when it’s hot but if you put your a/c on then both fans will run

[@Moe_Nation]

From what I notice both run at the same time but at a low speed. once you put the ac on or it heats up to around 210 they both kick into a high speed.

[@ricardocovarrubias4464]

Did you have fitment issues with the intake and radiator? I have both of the same items and I’m having fitment issues with the intake

[@Moe_Nation]

Mmmm i did a little bit. I had to just keep the playing around with it.

[@pacspeed8041]

Bro check your temperature switch by your first spark plug in the front on the driver side

[@Moe_Nation]

It was the fan. The driver side was coming apart.

[@paulhill2200]

Check your tune for the fan not coming on

[@PlugInEmpire]

Where did u get your front splitter?

[@Moe_Nation]

G8only.com

[@Greyo1]

Lmao

[@Netosvlog]

Love my cold case procharger appreciates it also bend down to hold fans ill send u a pic

[@Moe_Nation]

The intake keeps it in place but im scared itll start burning it from the heat of the cold case.

[@jaydubb71]

Damn G8 radiators. I hate them

[@Moe_Nation]

You and me both!
