i did search and found nothing..

hey guys.. i just got my 95 240sx..(that has a sr20det red top) and i drove it for about 50 miles (on the highway in 5th gear) and all of a sudden i press the gas and car doesnt accellerate.. the rpms still shoot up but it feels like im in nutural.. i pull over and car is still runing.. (when i purchased the car it smelled a little like transmission fluid inside).. i had to tow it home.. but when i pulled over i i tried shifting into gears and it felt like it went it but when i released my clutch nothing.. i asked the guy (i bought it from) and he said the tranny has about 50k on it..and the clutch is brand new.. i do hear a slight grinding sound sometimes and when i press the clutch the sound stops.. is my tranny gone? i check underneigh and it is leaking a little fluid but maybe a drop every few hours or so..
please help..

i will try to get some pics and a vid of it starting up..
