2) "Jangling" noises and "vibrations" are not good, if the subject is transmissions - only a qualified mechanic will be able to properly diagnose how badly you've damaged your transmission. (Yes, it is possible you have).
3) Most oil additive products, including those you mentioned either a) do nothing, or b) do harm, and are to be categorically avoided. Example: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....highlight=zmax
4) Regular oil changes using a quality oil & filter and following all the maintenance schedules are the best way to ensure getting many serviceable miles out of your car.
Oh - and NOT ABUSING IT will definitely help.
Keep at it, and you're buying an e-ticket on the bullet-train to "Trannyreplacementville."

One good thing is you didn't smash your car while trying to show it to your friends.

I would suggest getting clutch dumps out of your system, and just beat the crap out of the tranny, until it breaks. Then replace it. It should run you about what, $2,000?

what about putting the car in 1st, and then after like 2k rpms, just mash the gas and spin the tires? It's not as cool as a peel out, but kinda fun.
