I remember talking to you a while back about moving over to the Evo market.
I'm finalizing my build and wouldn't mind testing this out on my Evo, going from a 300+ all motor Honda to Evo myself I was in search for something like this for the Evo and that's why I had messaged you about it. Let us know ASAP because I'm About to split my trans soon so modify oem synchros and if I get yours, I'll save myself hours and hours of my sweet time.

Thanks

I would definitely buy a set of these synchros. 300 seems like a very reasonable price to me.

As a couple people have stated it you were to get a transmission builder on board then I would definitely be interested. Rebuilding the transmission is one of those things I would rather send out for than rebuild myself, but I would be more than willing to pay to have this upgrade added to a rebuild.

I would be interested in trying it out.

Thank you all for the suggestions. If we proceed, I would anticipate a release date later this year. It will take about 3-4 months for tooling and production of the first batch, then we will need to do some in car testing to get some real world results. I will also contact some of the suggested key EVO rebuilders and send them some samples for review before going to market.

Keep the comments coming! I will follow this thread and update it with any developments.

Agreed

you should contact Jon at team rip engineering TRE . he would be most informative on this subject.

I have been building the 4g63 trans for last 15 years. I can tell you early DSM transmissions came with a lined composite syncro. dont know if it was carbon. but those syncros were superseded to brass. I always felt those syncros worked quite well. rebuild some trans reusing the original composite syncros on some gears. they were more susceptible to fluid choice. and the dealer offered and expensive , smelly additive to make them work better. Jon would have WAY more knowledge on this subject and Is a joy to converse with. I urge you to give him a call.

Holy moly I wish you would have thought of this years ago. ...

I am sure if they work properly we would support. Are you guys going to do some test on your end ?

for 300 I would be in for a set

Good to hear I'm pretty excited about this as it's known these transmissions aren't as amazing as the motors so to see you guys wanting to step up try to make them better is awesome and I fully support it and if they work you can bet they'll be hot cause nobody else does it and everybody would like a better more durable transmission especially at that price point

MR transmission never gets any love...lol

I know for a fact Shep wont go for it being he exclusively uses PPG gear sets.

Shep uses ppg gears in the dogbox which has no synchros. In a standard Shep synchro trans he uses oem gears.

I would try it. I am getting my trans built next week.

I know it's not an EVO but I thought you may want to see Myles Kerr put Synchrotech Carbon synchros to the test at the latest TX2K14. Be prepared for your jaw to drop! Congrats to Myles and the English Racing team for putting in work!!
