Welcome to the B6 Wiki!
Quick links to all the sections on the first page! Frequently asked questions - the most common questions you may have answered here! Aftermarket Parts - parts for the B6 and B6D Tech Tutorials- tuning guides, ball diff and shock building videos and tutorials How to's and build-specific posts Team Associated Laydown transmission conversion for B6D: Laydown conversion Instruction Manuals: B6: B6 Manual and setup sheets B6D: B6D Manual and setup sheets How to Sand and Seal carbon fiber: Sanding and sealing carbon fiber Sanding and sealing carbon fiber 2 Sanding and sealing carbon fiber 3 Sanding and sealing carbon fiber 4 Charts for Quick reference:         1) put inner bearing in hub 2) slide large shim over axle all the way up to the back of the axle 3) slide axle/bone into hub carrier 4) slide small shim onto axle through hub carrier 5) push outter bearing into hub carrier using that i'm able to put my normal male silverback gorilla wheel nut tightening job and there's no binding. in the pictures that come with the shims (the pic socket posted) it seems like they want you to slide both shims onto the axle before sliding the axle into the hub carrier and like i said, that doesn't work.  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.

Roger that. I wouldn't say overlooked, it just isn't well connected to the discussion regarding the issue you experienced.
Reply with history, or some sort of reference helps resolve that since these threads all basically are read in linear form.

Okay so sorry if this has been asked before but I have just got my b6d. I want to know what hop ups should I be prioritizing, I run on a med-high bite clay track.
Current hop ups I have are
25g brass hinge pin holder
Exotek slipper eliminator
Kashima shocks
Lay down transmission
Aluminum bulkhead

I have the type 1 Ackerman arms from schelle. I do not have his shock tower or front wing. I have the standard ae gull wing tower/hard arms. I believe it's a proline front wing I am running.
Would the tower make that big of a difference? Isn't it just thicker for better durability?

you say it has great mid to exit. but pushes? is this going into the corner then or??

B6 loose set up
Does anyone have a good base setup for the B6 on a indoor sports hall floor with a bit of carpet, low traction.

I'd definitely try out flat arms and flat tower.

I am looking for some set up help. I have a really bad push and the car doesn't feel direct at all like other b6 I have driven. I have tried a few different setups and gone through the car to make sure there is no binding in suspension or driveline. I have the correct tires for the track and have even tried the fast guys tires to make sure. It is great mid to exit but still has a lot of push.
I can't post the link to the setup but it is the Kurt wenger ocrc 9/21.
The only change I made is the rear shocks in the middle hole on the tower.
Any ideas of what to try next?

That's a lot of optional parts on that setup. Do you have all of them? If not, it's hard to compare apples to apples on that. If you do have everything that's listed on that setup, I have to agree, your diff has to be too tight, because I can't see what would cause your car to push on exit with that setup.

Morning/Afternoon/Evening everyone!
With the upcoming Outdoor Reedy Race Of Champions at HRH in a couple weeks, a fair chunk of the AE AUS team are coming over to have some fun. Outdoor low to medium grip is the surface we race on pretty much all year round. We've worked really hard on developing the B6d over the last few months since it's release.
In preparation for the Reedy race I have done a blog/Aussie build on a B6d, with a combination of photos, videos and in depth descriptions.
Please feel free to hit me up if you have any questions, and hopefully I'll get to meet some of you guys over there.
