Now we are thinking of expanding into the FRS/BRZ market with carbon composite synchros, but I'm not sure if there is enough interest to warrant the tooling and production cost. I'm looking for some feedback to see if we should proceed.

Let me know what you think!

You know I'm interested, I just couldn't front the tooling costs

.

Thanks,
Eric

I guess such synchros might be of interest for some that overdone clutch dead travel adjustment mod and killed theirs due clutch drag

The only negative I have ever heard is in extremely cold conditions with thicker MTF the carbon synchros can feel a bit notchy until they warm up, but normally they have a better shift feel than brass and can be used for daily driving and performance use.

$300? Sign me right the hell up. Hahaha.

Interested as well, I have a spare transmission needing a rebuildand I would rather use these then stock ones.

Would these also work with replacement gear sets?
