Your post has me looking seriously at this.
370z Road Race Fuel Pump

Getting great race tested results on another thread.
Fuel Starvation Control Product

I wish the Z did not come built with these problems:
-Steering lock (free!!!!!! Yay!)
-loud road drone ($1,200 wheels $200 Dynamat)
-Terrible clutch...huge flywheel/weak clutch/poor CSC ($1,800 JWT clutch/CSC/flywheel)
-Right turn fuel starvation. ($1,000 in tank Fuel controller)
-High oil temps and "limp mode" ($500 oil cooler)
-mostly non functioning VLSD ($1,500 LSD)

Aside from that, a bit of Plastidip and we are all good. ($6,500 bucks poorer, but all good)

let me know if I missed anything, I do not want to have to call a $200 tow truck just for not installing another simple $1,500 mod

Just to be clear, I really, really, REALLY love my Z! (A bit beat up though she may be...)
