I got some for my GTR - $295 from Roof Carrier Systems in Camberwell. Brand new - custom made to fit using Thule components.

Fit 2x bike carriers/board carriers very nicely :P

Re: Snow season... slightly OT, but roofracks are easy - you ever tried finding chains for 18x10 wheels! Hens teeth are easier. Lucky I still have the Lada :(

Russ: Re: OT - Niva & GTR

After getting the Nissan violated - it was described to me as having my young Japanese girlfriend raped, and having to return to the Russian mail-order-bride for solace :)

Here is my favourite 'family photo':

Hopefully not too long before my baby comes back. Been 2 months now :D

this is up for auction here

they're goin for 4000Y which is roughly $55, but expect to have paid 3 times that value to get it in your hands (taxes, commissions, postage etc)

I'll look for some roof racks

Found a roof rack.

Its actually a ski carrier (but I guess that's a roof rack) Its 1000Y or $13 (expect to pay about a $100 to have it in ya hands).

On auction here, but it finishes in roughly 23 hours. So betta hurry :P

PS: its off a 4 door r33 so dunno how it'll be on yours, guess its the same coz the roof is the same.

  • 1 month later...

OK - just under 3 months and I get my car back :D Yay!

Here are promised photos of Thule racks:

Just been to IKEA

Couldn't be bothered removing the bike carriers before loading up with a new desk and coffee table :)

Pads on roof are soft rubber, clamping arms are plastic-coated.

Racks and bike carriers all made by Thule.

    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
