So i've been looking around for some roof racks for my M35 ARX, without much luck. had a search in the forum...no love either.

Has anyone fitted roof racks to their M35? if so - where, how and how much?

I have tried ARB and Roof Rack City (in adelaide) but neither are very willing to help out if it's not in their magic book of standard products.

Only looking to carry a couple of surfboards/snowboards, so no massive loads or anything.

Do roof racks from any other model fit the M35?

I got my racks from Roof Rack City in Artarmon (sydney). They are the importer of Thule into Australia so they will be able to advise you of the best model and where to get it from in SA.

If you have no luck with them send me a PM and I will find the part number for the racks.

Cheers

Andy

OMG... I would have sworn that I had posted the part number some where... What I can find are pictures of the part that mounts on the roof and the foot on the bar locks onto it. I used the thule Aero bar but you can use the square bar if you prefer.

Here are the pics. I will call them tomorrow and see if I can get the part number from them.

Hi Guys

I called Thule today and tried to clarify what was available for the M35. The answers are:

* The fit kit I have is no longer available so they have a new solution.

The solution is.

Fit Kit = TK3034

Foot kit = RT753

Aero bar 135cm

Total kit cost is $360 (plus postage if you are interstate)

There is a small amount of modification required to the fit kit to make it fir the M35.

If you are interested in getting this roof rack kit you can phone, Dan @ Roof Rack World on 02 9439 2677.

He knows what our cars are and can set up a set for you and send it out to the guys who are interstate.

This is their site if you want to look at it. http://www.roofrackworld.com.au/

Cheers

Andy

I'll offer you $400NZD. . . what a profit. . lol. . . . .$400NZD should be about $0.55c aussie. . . ha h ah a

I have been searching for racks and found a website in Japanese that has a kit specifically for the NM35, I just cant find anyone that sells the products in Australia. They are RV INNO kit number 271.

The bars are your typical square look.

I have just made an enquiry to an Australian company called RAK, they have telescopic, universal fit racks. Has anyone tried these? The bars on it are a squashed look for aerodynamics and are anodised aluminium from memory. The Kit was $298.

I will keep you posted on fitment.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • 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
