If I remember right. They have more RAM. There is basically 3 different ECU's for the years. '09, '10 to '14, '15+. Each up-grade has more stuff in it.

+1 I received the same information from a Nissan engineer that the ECU’s in all three of those years is different with the 15+ have more programming capabilities as there is more usable memory in the 15+ ECU’s. Also the reason why I purchased a 15+ Z was because of the fact that all conditions the same +15 Z will make more whp and wtq than pre 15 Z’s more so in improved weather conditions. I have seen this before myself you will never feel the difference only on your dyno sheet printout. Thanks for sharing Rusty.
