is there a connection. Could one do a college level project on the two subjects and their corralation?

Well, not really, as chaos theory is a mathematical explanation for minor deviations in starting conditions causing large changes, and general relativity is about space/time curvature :|

I recommend reading the lectures I posted on GR

I don't believe there is an obvious direct connection, but there are sure to be some subtle connections worth exploring. This would be a bit above the undergraduate level, as both topics pretty much graduate work... but give it a go.

Alot of GR rests on particle motions (i.e. the geodesic postulate); which are subject to effect of the chaos theory.

The point I was trying to make was that General Relativity is a really really poor thing to compare Chaos Theory with.

Yeah, but you could do it.

so then perhaps quantum mechanics and chaos theroy would be more apporiate a subject. Though I worry it may be too broad...

quantum chaos... not the easiest thing in the world by a long stretch. essentially what you would be looking at is the border between the quantum and classical world, something that has been occupying alot of very clever people for a long time.

Does anyone know where I can get ALOT of information (from the internet mainly) on this little masterpiece (the Riemann zeta function)?

Beware. Many numbers inside.

eigenstates and riemann's hypothesis...I'm gonna prove it (lol). or at least try...wish me luck

Somehow I doubt you'll be able to :|

Although I used Choas Theory for my handle, I don't know much about it. You can refer to the skeptics' article in my siggy if you want.
