I will have Sebastian@ SpecialtyZ chime on on this subject. He can clarify as to where EcuTek is in terms of the option for the 370Z as well as explain ability to running both 91/93 and E85.

Stay tuned...

Thanks, Tony
Currently there are no flex fuel options for the 370Z. You could install a flex fuel sensor and gauge however this does not mean the car is "flex fuel" ready. You would just be able to monitor ethanol content is all. Flex fuel sensors output in a pulsed method, most standalones have the ability to take a digital pulsed input so there would be no need for an "analyzer". Some ethanol gauges will take the pulsed output and can spit it back out as a 0-5v signal. In the case of the factory Nissan ECU, it would require an "analyzer" or gauge that can convert the signal. We'll have to wait and see if the EcuTek features currently out for the GTR will make it to the 370Z & G37s. If they do, then the flex fuel sensor & analyzer\converter would be able to communicate as an input back to the factory ECU from there once programmed & tuned by the tuner the ECU can make changes to fueling and timing based on what the ethanol sensor reports back.
