Hey you guys Im that auto Z(touring) that is giving in thier ECU to technosquare for the reflash. I was planning on sending it today but i ran into a problem trying to take the ECU out. I did all the steps and im basically done. I got to the ECU and unbolted it so its jsut hanging except its still connected to three sets of wires underneath it. And idn how to disconnect it. From the instructions I think they said to squeese something and it woudl jsut slip off but i stared at it for an hour and couldnt' figure out what to do. Here's my progress...........any help to detach the ecu would be greatly appreciated. ty

It'll take about to weeks. I had dropped my ECU off on a Saturday so it didn't get shipped out until the following Monday, so it took a few days. When you you do get it back, just plug it in and you'll be good to go.

Once you get your ECU back give Tadashi a call and schedule to bring your car in. The ECU will still be in its stock form so you can drive around with no issues.

They are still doing R&D on the cars from what I gather.
Incorrect. The G35 sedan last year is 2008. It is now the G37 Sedan for 2009.
And you are right though that the VQ35HR will be able to share parts between the VQ37. But we do know the intake manifolds will not simple bolt on between the engines.
