a 111r? love the colour of mine,and have spent a few quid, breaks, new a048s, hurricane ,larini, alu rad, it already has adjustable suspension etc but am wanting a little more ooomph so would it work out better to upgrade mine or go the 111r route? going to do a fair few trackdays this year I hope... so what is the general consensus?

Dont do it. the 135R is a beautiful car. perhaps an engine upgrade of some sort. that or drive a slow car for a bit and renew your love for the R.

From someone who owns a 111R - there would not be enough gain to warrant the expenditure. The 111R is a little more civilised though.

Only you can decide - take a trip to the dealer and drive one and see what you think. That said you'll likely want to upgrade the chassis to get back to something like what you will have sold - with wider fronts, lower and stiffer suspension etc.
