Just what I've been looking for, but didn't want to spend upwards of $200. Did you order through their website?

EDIT: Couldn't find the particular model you specified on the website.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I just got a set of roof racks for my Series 2 Stagea and wanted to advise other owners that these fit perfectly;

"Jetbag" brand. Owned and made by Thule (Sweden), 3 yr warr

Model- Complete 6501

Black 126cm long with black foot kit

Lockable

75 Kg rating (very good)

Got them through these guys based in NSW - $105 delivered (less than 1/2 the price of ROLA, THULE and the other major brands).

More info here.

Apperently the same as the current model Toyota RAV 4 with roof rails.

Go to www.jetbag.com

then click on "load carriers", then "jetbag complete" then "railing rack".

I ordered these through Roof Rack World in NSW by phone.

www.roofrackworld.com.au

Ring them and ask for the above "Jetbag" ones for Nissan Stagea....the guy was very helpful (Daniel I think his name was) and measured up a new RAV4 that he had outside after I gave him some dimensions of the roof rails on the Stagea and said they will fit fine.....and yes they did.

Sometimes they also advertise on Ebay.

The racks are compatible with the full range of Thule accessories as they have the standard size bar.

Fantastic, thanks for that.

Thanks for that, off to the local Auto One store I go......will post pictures when fitted.

Another person sorry to dig up an old post but...... just wondering if anyone has pics of their roof racks yet?

Hi Guys,

Has anyone had a look at Repco?

They had two or three brands of roof racks (rola, thule?, .......?) with a multitude of accessories and clamps for different roof rails in their range.

I saw a particular clamp that im sure would fit a stag, both the clamp and bar it

suited was quite aerodynamic.

I have a set of roof racks for a Stagea for sale. They were given to me when I purchased my car but I have no need for em. They are for snow boards and snow skis. I am not sure of the brand, but send me a PM if you want to know more about em.

AutoBarn catalogue just arrived (13/10/2010) with a set (pair) of Buzz Roof Racks for rail-type roof mountings (like the Stagea).

$89 for the pair.

Just bought a set of these. They fit PERFECTLY! Will post pictures soon. And also plan on buying some bike rails for it too.

Wait whats this, some roof-rack-toting bicycle riding family wagon with a slow-poke behind the wheel? Then BAM!, gone in a cloud of fuel and carbon :no:

are they aerofoil style?

or box section?

might have to investigate further

nah just square tube (slightly rectangular). Repco currently has 50% off Rola racks, but they dont make some for stageas, and even went to a roof rack specialist and he basically said 'well they dont make them, so all i can offer is Thule universal ones for $270 a pair'... :no:

Whispbar actually have the Stagea as a selectable model on their website (http://www.whispbar.com.au/cars/nissan/stagea) - not sure how they'd go but they look like they'd be an option to consider?

UPDATE: Approximately $300-$350 for the Whispbar set.

does anyone have any more photos of their roof racks installed? The square type ones would be ok, for a couple of trips now and then, but don't they create a fair bit of drag and noise? just what i've heard.....

still thinking to get a set of rola racks..... just a bit pricey for only being used a couple of times per year... hmmm decisions

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
