How to lift tC to put jack stands underneath?
OK I got jack stands and I know where to points out to put them. I would like to know what part of the car to lift and not break anything in order to get the jack stand to its rightful spot..
The front and back I would like it leveled.
I checked the manual it wasn't helpful..i even check the forum that was no luck..
People say Search for it..by the time you find it ..it could be hours or days if its even on here..
If anybody can guide me to the right spot so I don't damaged my car.

on the frame rails. You put the jack stands in the same places as u would use to jack the car up.
If you want the car completely off the ground like it sounds you do, and you want it leveled. Get 4 jackstands and set them to the same height and put 2 on each side of the car.

Yeah look under and you will see the frame I put my jack there and lift and put stand next to the jack on the frame and lower jack and move to next spot.
I have also used the spot that is the tow tie down under back center to lift with jack,right next to where the exhaust runs under the frame between the wheels.
Up front you can put in center of frame and lift but I dont like lifting that much with my jack.

i also use the tow hook thing in the back.. if u look back there u'll def. see it.. only thing being, when i ran my greddy sp2 i couldnt get the jack on that spot.. soo. just a healthy reminder, if u dont have a canister type exhaust, it might be a tricky spot to get too..

and oh a warning, dont use the scissor jack to lift the car to put a jack stand.. its not safe to use that when jacking too high, its only good for changing tires or lift so you can use a better hydraulic jack.. i almost got into an accident on that one, the car fell of that scissor jack and when it was jacked too high and fell out of balance..
