pics of clutch line cooler mounting location?

Does anyone have a picture or diagram of how the clutch line cooler is mounted to the car? I can't figure it out, and it's nowhere in the service manual. For those that don't know...if you look at your master cylinder and trace the line down and by the A/C line, you'll see this little distribution block and little mess of tubes wrapped around in an oval pattern, then it goes to the slave cylinder on the transmission. I have no idea where this distribution block mounts to the chassis. Any help? Thanks!

it's not a cooler. it's a buffer. bypass it completely by mating the 10mm male and female threaded lines going into/out of it.

Just wondering, is there any reason to bypass it? I already have a SS line, will bypassing increase response?

not really. response is an individual thing. I like mine with the block. some like it without. it makes it easier to bleed without the block, but otherwise the pedal feels the same.

I know on 240's it dampens the vibrations or something as well as lengthens the pedal travel and softens it a little. I assumed it did the same on the maxima.
