Ok, so i tried to search a bit and didn't see anything conclusive. Can someone inform me the important factors in buying a universal roof rack, ie the length or what kind of feet are necessary if I'm not using an oem rack? Or what other car racks are compatible with ours? I've never even touched one of these, but if I can get one to work it may go a long ways to keeping my VR4, as i have to haul a 6ft box once in awhile.

Ask in the wanted section for a roof rack. I don't think anyone makes them for our cars anymore.

I understand that 4304 would be best, but this is the superseded item now: click
Anybody know if it will work.

i don't know, but from what it looks like and what mine looks like no it wil not work. click this is what you want, plus a load bar. there is no cheap way to do it right with our cars.
