Pretty interesting stuff right here... Wish I had the money, I'd like to do this.

So what all does that $1,495 price include?

are you able to do any transmission? what kinds of gearboxes are you familiar with?
non-honda?
how thick is this plating? is this like diffused into the material, or added onto the outside? how to you prep it?

doesnt it interfear with the tolerances of the gears bearings, etc??

We haven't found any clearnece issues with it. It's not a coating at all it's actually a process that effectively takes the rifts and valleys of the gears and smoothes them out. This process was actually developed for heart valve polishing. We just brought it over to this and it worked wonderfully. Here's a quote from the owner

This is the end all be all tranny treatment, if you want to make high hp, never grind 2nd again, do any form of racing, or like to give your car a good beating ever so often and not be afraid that you will damage the transmission this is a must! After driving with little to no oil and then seeing the gears when we opened the tranny case I'm astonished. After it started making a strange noise I thought for sure the gears were done, opened the tranny case to reveal gears that looked the same way they did NEW...the throw out bearing and counter shaft bearings were toast, mostly due to the fact they were run with no lubrication....and trust me don't worry about synchros Brian has even doctored up my spare stock tranny and it feels pretty damn smooth little to no grind what so ever and it's a completly stock 6-speed tranny...but I do miss my built tranny right now because its being disassembled at the moment.There is definitely a noticable difference in power between my stock tranny and Microknite treated transmission.
If you want the closest thing to an indistructable tranny this is your solution!

So no, we haven't found the limitation of it yet. I'm fmailiar with most trannies depending. what were you looking for?
