Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I pretty much always walk around my car before I hop in.

I'm mostly looking for scratches and dents, but I'm sure I'd pick up a piece of paper on the rear window.

heheh same here.. n also i just think in my head "ohh wow how hot is my car" hahahahah..

but who looks thier doors before startin their car tho??

Some id!ot carjacker to-day tried to carjack one smart dude.

He leapt into the driver's back seat and put a stranglehold on the motorist > told him to drive to Liverpool.

On the way, the driver detoured into Granville Police Stn leaning on the horn > off-duty copper arriving at the Stn arrested the carjacker.

'blast from the past thread' yes but...

Yesterday, a woman stopped at a red light in Liverpool

> one man with a knife threatened her

> she pushed him aside with her driver's door as she got out

> she got onto the median strip and screamed

> her Civic rolled forward trapping an accomplice's leg

> carjacker in the driver's seat got out to help

> woman jumped back into her car and drove over the man's leg and took off

This sounds like a typical scare-monger story fabricated and emailed around by stay-at-home mums who believe the stories on A Current Affair and Today Tonight - ie. it's utter bullsh!t. I can only see this story scaring women who are imaginig a whole horror-story scenario in their head as they read this, where they get followed, raped and hurled into a dumpster.

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart

      I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.

      Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.

      As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.

      but any other area than the bulge you are talking about will just cave in then? The front driver side is pretty bent so I don't know if that will work the way it is now. I can still kinda make out where that bulge is/was but it looks like the position of it also changed due to all the mistreatment? Hard to tell
