I think you blew your clutch. Does it move in second gear?...cause if it does, its your first gear that you blew out.

not giving you a hard time but why do u constantly try to launch your car?
I would try what windingroad suggested though.

The car is not meant for you to launch at that high RPM range. This is AWD..not RWD.. you definitely broke a gear or two.. or perhaps the whole tranny. Good luck!

if you think your car can handle it, then why are you asking us why you experienced some kind of drivetrain failure?

also what had to be done to fix your car after your post back in April?

Sorry to hear it man, but I'm not sure it's the tranny - couldn't this be the center diff?

mm, then can we get a little more detail about your friends sti? that could help us narrow down what broke.

Are you saying its not your STi anymore because you feel like an idiot for doing the same thing again and people called you out on it?

If not I feel bad that your going to have to pay for the damages since you were driving "your friend"'s STi...

oh and could you answer this...
