Swain Tech does rotors, too. They did mine.
For pictures and much debate over why coating the rotors may or may not be worthwhile, see this thread:

Also, before anyone asks, my car is not running yet, so I don't know if the coating helped, hurt, or was merely pointless. Don't ask, I don't know!

Oh, and other engine parts.
Less than 10?

Remember when batman tried to tell us all about the anti-det device? I think the majority of his higher learning ability ends at "cut and paste".

Please post the results of this when you get them.
It's nice to see some experimentation with materials happening in rotary engines. With relatively low production runs, Mazda seems to be happy to stick with the tried and true ways of doing things, although there is probably a better way...
