Yeah I'm not to keen on the FC swap because when I planned the build I thought I would be able to get the RE-speed setup so I already did the GSL-SE conversion and bought wheels to fit 4x114.
I cant get in touch with REspeed either so I'm thinking I may just have to fab something myself since I'm pretty stuck on going rack and pinion for this car.

Re-speed was the only company (recently) that made a bolt in rack and pinion kit. At one point a company called CP Racing made one (about 10 years ago) which also suffered a similar fate - they basically just disappeared....

For what it's worth you can still do the FC subframe and keep your 4x114 pattern - the S4 base models had that lug pattern, you would just need those hubs. There are writeups in the FC section on how to use T2 brakes with those 4 lug hubs, or you could just use the base model brakes if you don't need the bigger stuff... Just food for thought

Somebody that has this setup on their car and has some serious DIY skills should re-create the kit! I would definitely be interested in a 15:1 R&P!!!

Hopefully, someone, someday, will be able to replicate this kit for the rest of us FB owners looking for an R&P set up without having to convert to an FC frontend.

I am thinking about doing one with the rack off a suzuki swift, it is electric, and has the motor on the rack. It is very popular with vintage rally guys and should fit fine on our cars

Cool, if you get it to work maybe, hopefully, you can make it available to the rest of the community.

Definitely, I'm an engineer by trade so there will be drawings of the mounts and what not

Sounds great! I've been wanting an R&P setup forever, but none are available.
