I wonder if you grenanded the Diff possibly...
The 5spd trans is pretty damn solid, nothing o really worry about except the stock Diff. The gears and majority of the hard parts on the V6 5spd is identical to the internals of the Evo, that should give some of you an idea on the strength of these things.
It would be a good thing to tear the trans apart when you get it out and see what exactly broke.
that's about all I think it would be. I'll just have to find out in the Spring since I've put the car away for now. Besides, I've decided rather than just throwing another tranny in there, I might as well do it right and go with an LSD.
A few minor things. JDM handles and a Hurst pistol-grip. The car may be stationary, but the shifter handle has such a solid feel. I'm looking forward to Spring already.

make sure you drill moisture holes for the fogs
Finally located a decent transmission I might be picking up. Not that it will matter being Winter, but at least it will be ready for Spring.
Also, while somewhat on topic, I just realized I never posted pictures of the destruction. Enjoy! Hahaha.

The Aftermath

whooooah
that's 3 quarts? lol
probably not all 3 quarts right there. The tranny went pop about 1/8 mile before I ended up there. The trail was ridiculous.
That's some crazy tranny problem right there as well. I wonder wtf happened!?
Coming along very nicely though!
Lol trans fluid is some nasty stuff
I'll find out soon enough. I was thinking either the clutch shattered or as spd_frk suggested, the diff did. When I pull the tranny, I plan on doing some digging to really find the cause.
No kidding, Fred! My interior still stinks like gear oil.
Damn that sucks!!!!! Guess its time to abuse some black ice car freshners lol
Bumper is looking good
