What are the best locations under the S2000 to lift it up with a floor jack. I'm looking for front and rear locations for things like tire changes, etc. I know from experience, some things that look strong end up bending, so I thought I'd ask before I need to do this. Thanks.

Check owners manual. Pictures included

 

Using a floor jack on the side jacking points will cause indentations in the metal. This can be minimized by putting a rag on the floor jack cup. However, this happens on almost every car when you use a floor jack on the side jacking points. This doesn't bother me as I use the same indentations every time. If it bothers you, then use the central rear and front jacking points as suggested in the owner's manual. They also recommend the use of a rag.

 

What page of the Owner's Manual are you finding the information for the center front and rear jacking points? I found the info for the side points, but not the center points. I have a 2001 manual, and I couldn't find it anywhere. (I know where the points are, but I just couldn't find the page in the manual). Maybe my manual is missing something...

Legal Bill: If you look at the beam that runs underneath the engine, you'll notice a reinforced piece of metal welded to the beam, that's your front jack point.

 

We used to have a FAQ on the subject but that has been optimized so it is no longer handy. I did find this:

The side jacking points in the front can be a little confusing, since at first look it appears there are two possible locations. Use the second one (looking from front to back).
