Something is really wrong. I have belted second hand T50s with 140rwhp and only broken one in two years (that was autocrossing too).

The sparkly bits are metal filings being ground off your gear teeth/out of the bearings. Not a good sign.

If this is happening with every box then check the bits you haven't changed each time you swap boxes. Does your bellhousing mate to the block properly? All bellhousing bolts and gearbox stays bolted up tight? Tailshaft doesn't bottom out on the output splines?

Not sure if any of this will help, but good luck finding the culprit.
