Pictures don't really show anything. Looking through one of the little holes on one end you can see that one of the friction teeth is missing, otherwise the unit looked brand new. Per warranty, I was forbidden from taking it apart so I didn't. I sent it in about a month ago and have not heard anything back so soon I will be sending a polite email. The transmission ended up getting messed up as well so I replaced that out of a wrecked car.
No Clarke Unit?

Clarke is a bit out of my budget. Warranty was approved, looks like MFactory is sending new internals to the states to have the differential rebuilt. I got the guy I am dealing with @ Syncrotech to send me a photo of the internals.

About 14 days a year or so of autocrossing.

Wow, it completely chewed itself up. Was that on stock power? Hopefully M-factory will offer a post-mortem of some kind, or at least a theory as to why this happened...

Power is not stock but it’s not crazy either. A conservative tune with a x47r on 92 oct

It almost looks like the parts weren't hardened or heat treated given how everything is just beat. I'm assuming you had the correct fluid/oil in the trans?

Did you find the fragments in the trans from the upper left gear lug?
