I've been driving manual cars for over 27 years and I've had a number of cars. Each one has had a different clutch feel BMW,VW 88',VW 01, Toyota, Infiniti/Nissan.

When I first picked up my 370z from the dealer and drove it home I was worried about two things. Stalling and getting rear ended or engaging to abruptly from standstill and rear ending someone. I know I looked like I only had 3 days manual experience to on lookers.

I searched for clutch mods also the first week but I didn't perform any. The more I drove the car the more comfortable I became with it.

To me the 370z is like a motorcycle you have to get in enough driving time to where you start to become one with it. I have close to 5k on my Z and I am quite comfortable with it but I know I still have a way to go.
