Very exciting to see this moving forward! Makes sense to go with the dct over a zf8, much better aftermarket. Besides clutch upgrades, a number of companies have cracked control of the getrag.
MaxxECU and Syvecs have full standalone solutions, and HTG/DKGECU offer their own TCUs (I assume you're looking at the latter here).
Any idea if you'll have to cop an f8x dct shift knob? Would be real nice to keep things nissan.

In bmw world, these swaps are usually done to accommodate gear ratio changes or to get rid of the slow ZF6. Never seen anyone do a manual to dct swap, I'm sure that will make integrating a controller a little simpler. Also the flexibility of FD ratios on this platform is a huge perk we don't have with the e9x/e8x cars.
