Jack Points

[AshesR33]

I need to know where to put the jacks stands on my R33, I have tried doing a search and found some info but no pics and I am not 100% sure where to put them and dont want to cause damage to the car. If any body has pictures or can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated

are you planning on jacking up the whole car or just one side/end? the proper places are under the door sill just behind the front wheels and just in front of the rear wheels. there is usually 2 small notches in the sill. otherwise you can put them under parts of the suspension points or even the cross member under the engine.

Whatever you do, don't jack it in the centre, under the sump lol.

I haven't jacked my skyline yet, but on the VL, we always jacked it just under where the springs are for the front, but I can't remember the back...something makes me think the diff, but then again I'm thinking that would have had adverse effects just like using the sump.

vl's had a standard diff (no IRS) so you could jack them off the diff if you did it near the suspension mounts. but you can also jack the car (either skyline or vl) from the actual diff housing as they are rather solid, however it isn't the best as the car can still tip to one side so jacking or placing jack stands as close to the outside of the car is the most stable and safest way to do it.
