    My Albi is dead :(

    Does the 2010 Clio RS 200 (Gordini) have an EGR valve?

    Didn't know that. I thought it was just Diesel but see Petrols can have them for emissions.

    Trackspec Clio 197

    Me too - same issues as Krash for the fit. Also the pulls are a bit flimsy. I'm going to get fabric pulls too I think.

    Clio 197 brake cooling ducts

    hub ball joint f**Ked!!

    How hard was it to remove the hub carrier from the inner part? Are you going to replace the pinch bolt with a bolt? What condition is your support in that bolts to the carrier? They seem to seriously rust.
