Mine is whisper quiet. I am running the plastic diff gears (sanded). And I shimmed the ring and pinion gears (diff input and main diff gears) front and rear so there is just a tick of play.
I am also running the EXO conversion and never ran it with the transvers motor.
I love the sound of a shaft drive over a belt drive. And this thing brakes extremely hard. Had to turn turn down my initial brake setting on my speedo.

Yes.
What ring? Which pinion?
I have the EXO conversion but I'm running it stock with the transverse motor mount for now. What size shims on what part of the pinion?

A noob Jerez. Do you mean the diff oil to be filled up in the differential gear during setup? In the Evo 6 set up manual's supplement, it states that damper oil (clear) provided shall be used instead of differential oil, and I did accordingly. Am I wrong in this case? Thank you.

Well, the thing is I'm following the Evo 6 setup manual to use the stock clear damper oil to fill up my differential gear. Am I doing the right thing? Do I need to buy differential oil and rebuild my differential gear? I'm a noob in RC and this is my first time building a RC car.

a screw is easy to replace
and of course the ball bearing, which is missing in every kit...

I had my first outing on the track with the Exo conversion a few days ago and it handled great. However, after five runs or so, I did notice the gold drive cup from the spur gear was starting to open up slightly. Not as wide as Aitutuki's but I am starting to get a little play between the cup and the plastic cap. Was there an error in my assembly or is this a known problem with the drive cup?
