You're right... it really spoils the fun in driving. It was worse in the '03 350Z with transmission replaced in '06. I couldn't get in gear at high revs, so it was embarrassing. It clunks so much, and it is so notchy my wrists hurt from shifting.

The 370Z transmission is an improvement, but still gets notchy and clunky (in 1st) at times. The master and slave cylinders... not so much. I don't track my car and already have issues.

I'm hoping Zat_Zuma's advice is enough to get rid of these hiccups and hopefully be able to shift into 2nd at WOT.
In the past, I've read that other than syncro rev match, the tranny's were virtually the same between the late model 350Z and the 370Z. Can't find a source though.
