I've traditionally done the diff screw head on the left side (driver's side), but have since switched to the Right side (passenger side) regardless of transmission type (3 gear RM vs 3 gear MM and 4 gear MM). Kdub (Kurt Wenger, former AE designer) had this to say on the matter: I think I count as an authority on the matter. I always run my diff screw on the right side (when sitting "inside" the car). I take off the tire and pull the outer hinge pin to get to the adjustment screw.
The right rear is the way the AE manuals state (or used to state). It really shouldn't matter since you go around turns both left and right.

Hanger Pill adjustment: left mine kit middle middle. When tuning roll center, am I correct in my assumption that pointing the pins downward lowers roll center (same as more shims on rear tower camber link)? And pointing up is raising roll center (eliminating shims from camber link)?. Already set on anti squat, toe and track width just want to make sure I've got this right. Also, what makes this adjustment different from adjust roll center at the inner camber link mount? Thx all
Pointing them down raise the roll center and moving them up lowers it.

Well, my first night with the b6d was a success. Was really pressed for time to make it this weekend, but was able to finish painting the night before and cut/trim the day of. Threw on some unprepared tires from my old b5 and was able to qualify 4th in the A in mod 2wd and then take 1st in the main in style with some close battling. Car felt slow, and while I was "on pace", I wasn't where I wanted to be and really needed to rely on clean runs vs all out ability. Went back up to the track the next day(today) and re-foamed my fronts with some new closed cell and boom, car was tits amazing. I figured I was gonna do some tuning but all it was was floppy front foams on high bite where lots of us run slicks or ghosted tires. I ran and won with the box stock setup with the long shocks. I'm definitely impressed with this car. Kit quality and drivability and competitiveness right from the box is just amazing.

I'm not changing gearing at all until I get my issue resolved. Apparently my XR10 justock esc's sensor port is not functioning. The 29t did increase my speed but it's been running without timing =/

Its a minor thing though but still cool to have, especially with the conditions we race on these days.
