My s13 didn't have abs, but I converted my car years ago to rhd. I think I'm using an abs rack.

Here is machined vs non-machined. I will never install these fittings without machining. Trust me when I say there is an additional 3mm needed to seat properly.

I appreciate you posting pics of what I'm talking about. I'm assuming that not all racks are the same. I've used crushed washers, washers with rubber seals. The only thing that seemed to slow down the leak was thread sealant that could handle ps fluid.
Since I made my own fittings I haven't had a ps leak. I'm still going to look into possibly having these manufactured. I could never trust the fittings that were provided in my chase bays ps kit.
