Yep, John is correct re the LSD. As it looks like you're building this up for a track vehicle I would go with the Guards clutchplate LSD. As for expensive, well a lot of the Guards stuff is actually made and supplied out of Australia and it's probably cheaper for us to buy it from Guards and have it shipped back here!!
Re your fender flares, how difficult was it to fit them?
Also I just don't 'get' your top photo?? What's going on there?
Nice trailer too.

The fender flares were very easy to fit, just be sure you have them close to matching on either side, and if youre not worried about your factory body, self drilling X head sheetmetal screws work great. These are the GT racing rear flares. I would dremel out some of the flare lip so the tires don't rub, just to be safe. Re the trailer, one of dads good friends owns a trailer company and will build basically whatever you want. Our trailer is custom, very good quality. Mammoth Trailers out of Mount Vernon Texas if you want to do some research.
The top pic is just the rear tire mounted before the flares. They stuck out about an inch and a half.

These pictures are very deceiving or I may have missed something; stock front fenders? I ask because 275's up front is very impressive and one bad thing with these cars is how much difference people have in tire widths versus front and rear. I have 285's on the back my S2 and wouldn't mind running 255 or 265 up front if they would fit.
