Definitely doesn't sound too good. Is it in all gears? Coasting in neutral?

Hard to tell, video isn't the same as being in the car. Mine did it at 40+ mph, Jack's Transmissions http://www.jackstransmissions.com/ went above and beyond customer service for me.

Why or how did it happened just out of curiosity, normal wear and tear, abuse or wrong oil ?

They were put together wrong from factory. That add abuse and extra power makes a ticking time bomb. Especially if you drag race the car.

I drag raced it about 9 times...I/m almost positive I used the right fluids when draining and filling after clutch change. But, from what I gather, it is a wear and tear problem with a combo of mis properlly installed from Mitsu
