Nissan (and other car manufactures) are focused more on their larger market: consumer vehicles. It seems like manufactures are more into building hybrid platforms for everyday users. At the same time, Im sure they (Nissan) realize that enough people own silvias and buy their older RB/SR engines anyways. Why create another car if people are already buying?

Anyways, I'm curious to see where the hybrid market takes (or doesn't take) the motorsport world.

BTW, I'm not crying if the S16 isn't out cuz the M35-H will soon be released!
