Re: NISSAN ENTERS V 8 SUPERCARS DOWN UNDER.
I stand corrected regarding the transaxle, somehow missed that change, as for the engine, Nissan may well go for the "category" engine option instead of developing their own.

Re:
So far there is no confirmation that Nissan will join this class, only talk about Chrysler going around.
If Nissan does join, it will probably use the Skyline engine like they used when the GTR's were running Bathurst.
The name V8 Supercars will be changed soon anyway to allow other makes to join.
Who knows, we might see the Cooper S run alongside again. lol

Re: NISSAN ENTERS V 8 SUPERCARS DOWN UNDER.
It appears that the most likely body will be the Ultima and it does not have to be available to the public as a V8, homologation will be taken care of by V8 Supercars. The biggest problem I see is that the "Car of the Future" will not be representative of any street car except in body shape. What is the next step? Banked oval tracks? We need to go back to the early 70's when I used to go to Bathurst and watch genuine production cars running on a genuine street circuit.

Re: NISSAN ENTERS V 8 SUPERCARS DOWN UNDER.
I hope that announcement does not reflect their level of commitment.
