Where did you purchase your tires? The continentals, what size?
The Continentals are 275.35.18, and I have a contact I get them from, if you are interested let me know and I can get you in contact


Also
Changed up the design on my diff catch can and am just about finished with this. Going to go ahead and mount this in the trunk area, since it was evident trying to get this underneath the car was a real pain in the a$s. Should have the mounting brackets done tomorrow, and the fittings will be here Friday!

Just read through your whole build! What an awesome car, man. I'm jealous of all the track access you have. Nearest to me is one hell of a drive and doesn't have open track days :(

school me on the advantages of the differential catch can.

The factory diff cover has a little vent cap at the top of it, that provides some venting for the rear end when the temperature rises. When you are under high loads(road racing/drag racing) fluid can actually come out of that cap and get all over the rear end of the car, and the track/road. When you switch to a Watts link setup, at least the Whiteline setup like I have, the little cap has to be moved, since there is no place for it. It is recommended to be moved to the driver side axle tube in place of the plug....however again during high loads/temperatures this will leak too. So what the diff catch can does is allow the hot fluid to enter in the catch can, when hot, and then it will simply flow back into the rear end when it cools instead of spewing all over the rear end of the car. The catch can will still have the vent function but it will never reach a level that it can spray, or get out.

Finished diff catch can up!


Except for the holes drilled for the bracket mounting was able to use all existing holes/grommets, without needed to drill extra
