  • Welcome young one (I have a few years on you)! Add your location to your profile, you be pleasantly surprised to find other memebers in your area. Injected B6s will require the injected wiring, fuel delivery etc. Carbed B6s were available here in Canada at least as late as the '86 model year.

    • I do believe the first gen B6 can be run with the carby setup.

              • A carbed b8 would be so much fun! Would remind me of my old carbed 1st gen rx7...just faster and brake better (with the aspire swap)

                    • I rolled Festdiva out of the barn. Its been sitting since June of 2012. First start in nearly a year and a half ( after replacing the battery )Vid below. Some dry HLAs but that don't worry me. I was afraid I'd open the door and find a mouse infestation but didn't even find a single mouse sprinkle. Smells as fresh as the day I parked it. Festdiva is on winter detail this year.

                        • Still looks great even under the dust.
                          An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.
