I've seen these as well https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/395822887806?chn=ps&_ul=AU&mkevt=1&mkcid=28&google_free_listing_action=view_item&srsltid=AfmBOooak9PFJJwwNDusr8TrZ5lsminTjComhJr-Z4dJ52Tt35T1hBPl0wk&gQT=1 but always seemed a bit dodgy lol -
Yeah same with the GTR but in practice that is pretty easy because the car is so high, and the stands only go from sill end to sill end so you don't need to wriggle far -
The other thing for me would be needing to go the long way (ie, front or back) to get to the middle of the car 🤣 I need to do the transfer case fluid in the E70 which is right in the middle, it's quite the commute from the front or back. -
yeah this video from about 6:10 shows the process, it is easy but not quick. I'll weigh the frames when I get a chance, they are not impossible, but not easy. I don't want to seem negative, I am happy to have it and use it often.....its just that it isn't a magical solution to making cars hover.

All up I'd guess it is 2-3x slower than jack+stands (when you already know where you are planning to place the stands) because the frames are heavy/hard to move and line up, and you still have to connect the hydraulic lines, start raising it, check adjustment etc. But in practice that is minor, we are talking 2min vs 5min, and being nice and high and very stable definitely makes jobs underneath easier
