they are very different cars tbh. Both are small and nimble, but drive each b2b.

Lets focus on the 235, car in stock form can handle track days without any problems. 244f oil all day no problem which sits right in the middle of the gauges in other series.

Tranny will be fine as long as you know how to drive and keep it under 550 whp.
Dont worry about firmware. Buy yourself a drop in filter, charge pipe kit, n20 spark plugs gap to .18, a cattless down pipe, and a intercooler. than buy yourself the BM3 dme flash.

Next would be stainless steel lines and brake pads, i reccomend ebc yellow stuff. motul 600 fluid for street, and swap pads for pfc08 for serious track days.

Your going to want some negative camber upfront, so look into your options on camber plates or bolts etc. Get some dinan springs and the handling kit ( 5 series bumpstops).

I run -2.7 up front and -2.1 back.

this alone should spend all your money and get you right around 400whp. paka
