The reason why some of us apparently can only get two out of the three bolts install at the same time is because the holes in the bracket were not machined out correctly and do not line up, at least it didn't on my 14 Nismo. After fighting it for a while(enough time to get pissed off lol) I noticed the misalignment. I took it back out and bored out the center hole down to line it up with the threads, finally got all three in. I'm pretty sure it would have been fine with two bolts but I wasn't trying to be defeated by a stupid simple bracket aka OCD. I emailed z1 about it, Shanna replied asking me if someone from parts team has contacted me, I replied no and haven't heard anything since. My apologies for the orientations of the pictures.
