Floor jacks compatible with the S2000
I know and do all the funky stuff to get the car up on jack stands with a harbor freight jack....,
What are most of you autocrossers/track junkies/time-attack/club racing folks using to jack the car up?
Has anyone run across a jack that can reach the front/center jack point on an S2k without driving it up on ramps first?

Head, I put two small 2x4's in my bag when I go autocross so that I can get it high enough. Even then, the jack I use when I autocross is not low profile/long enough to reach the front center jack point. It will give me access to the sides though.
At home I use the harbor freight low profile and have to use 2x4's as well. The HF jack is one of the lowest you can get.

I use this one but branded differently Low Profile jack with LED. This jack is apparently sold under several brand names. Mine came with a blow molded case that fits in the lower well of the trunk in the S2k. It is low enough to fit under all four jack points and lifts high enough to change tires and brakes.
I got mine from Wal-Mart several years ago. Mine is labled Performance Parts GM 7024 low profile trolley jack with LED light.

I use HF racing jacks. From the front side jacking point I can lift both side wheels and front wheels off the ground or if I put a jack stand under the rear of the front sub frame and lower the jack, both front wheels will be off the ground and the car supported by a jack stand. At the track, I have not found the need to jack it from the front center jack point. With a full cage, my car is very stiff. Not sure how a street car will react?
I would not trust just one stand for any vigorous repairs, but for tire changes, inspections or nut and bolt checks it has worked well for me.

I'm not clear if you can get to the front center jack point with the HF jack if using the 2x4's?
