Hey guys who was it that had a roof rack on here? I am tossing around the idea of a roof rack for the move back east but can't seem to find price info (or any other info for that matter). Do you guys think its a bad idea/ worth the cost?

thatd be me.
the best way to get the rack without paying out the ass to to buy used. yakima makes it confusing but the majority of the parts for the roofrack are made up of universal parts. You can buy any roofrack off kijiji with 48 inch bars (which you can find for like $150) and the only thing vehicle specific part you would need to buy new is the Q Clips which are like $50. the clips are just the little metal pieces that clamp the rack to the door frame.
get something like
Yakima rack - Alberta Other Parts, Accessories For Sale - Kijiji Alberta Canada.
or
Yakima Roof Rack - Alberta Sports Goods For Sale - Kijiji Alberta Canada.
after you do that then go to like racks for cars in edmonton and get the clips for the vehicle.
in total you should be able to get everything for under 200 bucks. whereas i bought new for like double that.
where you looking to get a roof top carrier or just to strap random stuff to the bars?

wideband jumps to lean and holds there, but the car is more or less running fine. no abnormal noises other then cylinder 4 coil pack having a harder tick then the other 3 but that could be almost anything. won't know till i pull the plug tonight.

nope but could be bad gas, cuz when i left the track it was running fine and then put a full tank of gas in. could also just be a blockage on the fuel rail. could be alot of things. i'm gonna stop by AV and pick up an octane boost and put that in while i'm at it just to be on the safe side of things.
