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.

I'll sell the RB6 first.

Else the bottom servo mount screws are too long and push the servo at an angle.
I'm running the exact same setup: Savox 1257tg, aluminum steering, kit plastic horn and it fits fine (with no ballstud spacer) as per manual.

I have a B6D. I love it! Anyhow, i wanted to get some advice with my electronics. I run a Tekin RSX with a Reedy M3 6.5T motor. I have a 19T pinion and 81T spur. I recently put a WTF fan motor in the car using a shapeways waterfall mount (fits GREAT btw). The fan keeps the motor down below 110 running back to back packs, yeah!!! However, I believe that the WTF fan is drawing a large current away from the motor because I notice I have lost torque. It's especially noticeable after taking a sharp turn into a jump and I can't clear the jump. When I unplug the fan, I get power back and I can clear the jump. Anyhow, I would like to keep running the fan because it allows me to have ample track time without having to wait to let the motor cool down between batteries. I only get to the track about once a week, therefore track time is precious. My questions are can I remedy this loss of power by changing out my OEM capacitor that came with the RSX with a better one? If so, which capacitor would you recommend? Also, maybe I could get a different fan that does not draw as much power. Any fan recommendations? Thanks in advanced!!!

You could run the fan off the battery directly instead of off the receiver/ESC.
