Thanks guys,

but the 4 stock jack up points are being slight bended by using floor jack.

besides, that would be more convenience to jacking up both sides at once
by using center point.

I'm just not sure if that is the towing hook, it looks very solid.
As the attachment picture shown, that is captured from japanese site.

it's best to use the points as roughly illustrated above.

the towing hook might be able to resist pulling forces while towing, but maybe not the weight of the car when jacked.
