The big prob with the standard R35 is weight and brakes. The carbon/ceramics (once you get used to them, they grab a bit when cold) fix that, they never fade. The small weight drop and better suspension (along with other electronic changes etc etc) all make a big difference.
Apart from that, driving an R35 GTR Spec-V at Tsukuba in Japan for free couldn't ever be a bad thing... ;)
