Is that a 370Z? I think those are essentially the same lift points used in a photo earlier in this thread. I used the photo below.

In the attached pic, I marked the nipple zfaulter is referring to with a red circle. As he notes, that's the sweet spot. As for the jacks, it looks like he is also using subframe. I have marked these locations with a blue box in the pic. I have used these when I've worked on other people's cars with aftermarket side skirts that got in the way of my normal pinch rail jack stand location.

It may bend some though. The lift that Austin Z Clinic uses has bent mine just a bit. No big deal
