I need to take my wheel of to find the offset. At the moment I can't jack the car up with the standerd jack because of my sidestirts but I have a Trolley Jack.
Where's the best place to jack underneath the car as I've looked in my manual but I can't read japanese

Mount point at the front is in the centre just behind your sump cover.
Use the diff at the back.

I'm not great on Physics but if I use the rear diff as the mount will it lift both wheels of the ground making it unstable.

Only if someone is sitting inside it or jumping up and down Seriously should be okay as long as the surface is flat, you have chocked the front wheels (depending on which way the car is leaning) and stuck some axle stands on afterwards.

Bit stupid to leave a car up on a hydro/trolly jack for any length of time. I found some good axel stands from Halfrauds of all places, they do two sets, one el-cheapo brand and another slightly more expensive (less than £20.00) which have winding handles so you can get the stands in and fitted in seconds.

If you look under your sill, you should see a gap cut out at the front and back of the sill, this allows you to mount your standard jack on there (the jack fits around the flat edge of the sill) - alternatively get a small piece of wood and place it parallel to the sill and use this as support for the trolly jack (to stop it crushing your sill edge or the skirt).

Hope that helps,
