| let me start with a short summary of my first post....yesterday...when my 1991 z32 NA 2+2 was running great: -- "Blah Blah Blah, never changed a oil pan gasket before, but I'm going to do it myself...im a little worried about my jack points and jack stands....i just want to care for my own baby....Blah blah" -- so today, i rolled up my sleeves and said fine, i can do this. had the jack points in my head and the production manual out to make sure i had all my areas covered.
My z is reasonably low so i rolled her up on to two wood planks. had my tire stoppers in the back and went to work. well yeah, i was on the wrong spot, [ http://imgur.com/syKOOZg ]
[ http://imgur.com/AmcATRY ] the jack was under what i thought was a strong part of the support beam, got it about a foot off the ground on the passenger side, and i heard it start making a noise you know, that slow "I'm about to bend" metal noise... i immediately (slowly) lowered the car back down and noticed the four thin lines encased in a plastic bolted next to the beam( running to the back) were not straight anymore. they were before i jacked the car up.

the steering wheel was locked, so i push the car off the planks of wood and to my horror, the break pedal won't move an inch and there is literally ZERO sounds when i turn the ignition.
there are no fluids draining. other then the oil pan leak that i knew about already (could also be a rear main seal)
there is power in the keys first position....
what the hell did i do?
