Weren't early model R35s crap on public roads? To get the thing to preform, despite its curb weight, they stuck on big tires and stiffened the suspension. So it wasn't comfortable.
I know I have read numerous articles about the latest GTRs being overall slower and less agile because they made it more livable.
Anyway, my understanding has always been that the less weight in the car, the more compliance you can add to the suspension because you can tune the geometry to deal with the movement of the wheels, rather than the body. I'm also guessing that the type of suspension matters as well. The 86 would probably ride like a dream and still tackle corners if Toyota had the budget to invest into a more complex setup.
Maybe double wishbones all around would help? Or whatever Koenigsegg is doing with their Triplex Suspension.
