Default clutch problem? hardly go into gear, noise

2002 AP1


I was driving quite aggressively with a group of friend during some canyon road.
I was shifting from 4th to 5th. and it won't go into gear.
So, after the car is off and cool down, I tired to put into gear. It will hardly go into any gear for couple times, then it's out. I need to turn the car off and on.

I tired the off car method. It will go into gear most of time with some extra force.

Car was tow home. Now, I found this.

car can hardly go into gear and it makes a noise.
noise stops when it is neutral and clutch pedal out

Trans fluid is changed 3k miles ago with OEM oil, they are full in the clutch cylinder
Master and slave clutch cylinder are changed 20k miles ago
clutch is changed 25k miles ago with competition stage 2 clutch, ppl, stock AP1 fly wheel

car is stock, 125k miles.

no, it makes a noise with the clutch in, and trying to go into gear, even it's not in yet

In the beginning of the video, you will see I am trying to go into first gear but even I force it, it won't go into first gear

When you try to push it into gear, the disc tries to slow down, but is being dragged by the pp.

Basically your clutch came apart. Its not the transmission.

Pull the trans, the problem will be very clear.

Should I prepare to buy a new clutch kit or some other parts?

Or I need to wait until pulling the trans
