Are you going with the 300mm rear vented setup? I bought the adapters for those myself, I haven't installed them yet.
True, sounds like a plan, keeping to lower geared diff, maybe some thicker e30/custom axles, not too sticky tires to keep the weak link at the tire, not drive-train and you might be good to go.
Good luck!
