Has anyone put a roof rack on a R34 four door? (ie two cross bars that attach to the top of the door frame front and back) I'd normally take the stagea when I need to carry long stuff, but am about to head off with the skyline instead.. Thus I need to be able to put some long stuff on the roof..

Went to a shop this morning, and they said that thule did make one that should fit, but it would take two weeks to get in - which is when I'm going, so I need a backup plan in case it doesn't arrive/doesn't fit! :laugh:

Anyone done it??

If you were going skiing (i realise what time of year it is) i would recommend magnetic ones. Dad was sick of buying new roof racks every 2 years when we got a new car so he got magnetic ones and just put a soft cloth between them so they didn't scratch the paint.

Did a great job.

Done. Got one - made up of two different parts ie the feet and the clamp to go under the door frame (both meant for a citron).

Wasn't cheap (about $300) but it is very solid and will do what I need. I'll post a picture if anyone wants to see.

I got roof racks from a place in Artamon, Sydney. Cost me $200 and I carry my Ocean Kayaks on it.

Was surprised to be able to pick up a roof rack catalogue and find my car on it. They are adjustable as well so I can take them off when I dont need them.

Ill find out what brand they are tonight.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
