Here's a list of shiz that I would like to get done before the event:

**My diff is making bad noises, so I need to swap in a rear diff from a 1996 FD that's sitting at the shop. I also have the uprated (more bracing) rear subframe to go on at the same time. The torsen is a stopgap until I can get my current T2/4.3 setup to my drivetrain guy to investigate and fix broken parts.

**Decide on tires for my new street wheels, and roll all four fenders without destroying them.

**This one isnt a necessity, but need to install OS Giken 'badass version' gearset so that I don't bend any more gears racing everybody and their brother (like that Mustang GT500 I whooped) on high boost down on the long straights leading to the Dragon
