The normal installer is broken so installing via GUI is not possible. However, I did some digging and a bit of guesswork which resulted in me finding the solution. The first part of the solution is to extract the installer files from the shar that you downloaded from Oracle (SolarisStudio12.3-beta-solaris-x86.sh in my case) which is accomplished by running: sh ./SolarisStudio12.3-beta-solaris-x86.sh --extract-installation-data .
This will result in 20 different files being unpacked in to the current directory. To install them you need to call them using: pkgadd -d filename. Filename is replace by each of the 20 files such as cc, c++, etc.
Kudos to Tech-Recipes for the pkgadd command. http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/350/install-a-solaris-datastream-package/
