Photo is of the RHS.

Red lines are dimensions of the oval cutout in the underside of the frame.  100mm x 40mm

Blue line shows location of the centre of the rearmost of the two holes.  Exactly 50mm from each end, ~23mm from the inside edge.  ie, that hole is centred front rear, but a few mm outboard of the left-right centreline.

You can see that the front end of the cutout (top of photo) has been abused slightly to allow the front bolt/socket to clear.  Whether this means that my wing has been installed slightly forward of where it should be, or if there is difference in the cutouts in GTSt and GTR boot lids, or if my (non-genuine) wing has slightly different bolt locations to a genuine wing, I cannot say.

I would suggest that you could make a stab at locating the wing, so it sits on top looking right, mark around it with a whiteboard marker, sit the rubber gaskets back on the boot lid without the wing and spot the bolt holes through the gasket's holes with the marker, then see if you can convince yourself that they line up with what I show from the underside (a bit of tappy tappy with a small Phillips screwdriver for example).

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
