Default tranny went BOOM

well, my tranny is now broken on my 89 prelude! why you might ask? well, let me give you the scoop . . .

i'm at the movies, have a while be-4 the movies starts. i meet this guy and he's like, let me hear your flowmaster muffler. so i'm like, sure. we get in the car and i go behind the building. stop, put it in 1st gear. take off normal, than floored it. @ about 5000RPM i threw it into 2nd gear. *GRRRRINNNDD* *POW, BANG, CLUNK, CLUNK, CLUNK* what the!!! sounded like i missed 2nd gear but with all that clanking and clunking, i was like, what's going on. so i put it into 3rd, let off the clutch and give it gas. NOTHING. i stop, put it into 1st, try to take off, NOTHING, engine just revs. the gear shifter is going into gear, but the tranny isn't engaging (sp is way off, been a long night)
so some dude helps me push my car into a parking space and i notice a bunch of oil (tranny fluid) under my car. then i see metal stuff everywhere. i found like a mini gear, about 2 1/2 inches accross, and some metal chunks.
i borrow a flash light and look under my car. my cat is busted all up.
i couldn't see anything on my tranny b/c it was real dark, and i couldn't get under my car real well. but this is what i'm thinking .. . .

my clutch shattared (sp again) and something came flying out the back of my tranny, hit the cat tore that all up.
and some-1 else said it could be my diff. pin? i just dunno

any thing else yall can think of that whent wrong???
and how much does a used tranny go for, like at a junkyard???


thanks guys, i'm gonna hit the sack, get some sleep, and worrie about it in the morning. good night!

ps - hope yall had a better sat. than me

If he shattered his flywheel it wouldnt be coming out the bottom of his transmision. What you found my friend is your differental gear, your transmisson is straight fucked. Time to go buy a new one..

That happened to me, I waddled the differental in the case and snapped a few teeth off the gears. But I was at the track running slicks and nitrous. You my friend were driving like an idiot.
