I have one on my car. Was talking to someone at a car show yesterday very interested in the idea and had not heard of MTheory's offerings. However I no longer see his rack and pinions on Ebay. He stopped making them? If not, I have a customer for him!
When MTheory introduced the kit, as most here we were interested. Although I lacked the funds to purchase at the time. Since then the price had gone up to $3000 and when I reached out last year he was backlogged. I was assured that he was in it for the long haul but about last March he said he was stepping back "temporarily". I have not seen or heard anything since then. Some of which I've been fine with as I have been hemorrhaging money for the last year.
If Mtheory is out of the game, it would be nice to be able to purchase the build sheet and schematics. But there is some real R&D that MTheory has invested, so I understand that he may not want that information free range.

Just heard back from him via email. He has stopped production as actual real job has him too busy. He ‘may’ be open to building here and there if approached directly.
The price when available was high. But honestly worth every penny. Completely woke up my car, and the design, fit and customer support were top notch.
I had a feeling availability would not last forever, so grabbed one whilst I could.
That's a dang pretty FB you got there Mr. Slowman. Don't tell me that's original paint.
Original from the front all the way back to the back end of the doors. Roof and rear repainted as rust has gotten into the roof panel and the hatch gutters. It’s a sweet spot right now…. Taking it to the Japanese Classic Car Show this weekend. Took the car two years ago as a ‘survivor’ and his behind its untouched ratty-ness. This year I am taking it as a restored car on which I am proud of my work. All down to you guys on this forum.
Here is the reply he gave me for the rest of the thread.
Just started production again this month. It’s not full time and I’m working through a pretty big wait list so no eta yet. Complete kit bolts in with no permanent modifications to the Rx7. It will modernize car without losing its charm.
This is the route I'm looking to take. Instead of using the non-power column and shaving to 17mm DD as shown in the videos below, I'm going to put my power steering column back in- just need to identify spline size and order appropriate u-joint.
Hi everyone. I wanted to report that I spoke to MTheoryInc and he is fabricating kits again and is working on a batch for June, 2024 delivery so if you are interested in getting one I suggest you reach out to him. I have one on order to solve my problem. Can't wait to start enjoying my RX7 again!
