Let's face it, a 6-banger just isn't going to have the bottom end torque of a V-8. But the Z ECM has a lot of nannies that can be removed (eg, accel pedal response) that will greatly improve your butt dyno experience.
For lateral Gs, the Z wins hands down.

The Zs are very reliable, for the most part, but the CSCs have gone out on quite a few people. The ESCL (steering lock) was a problem on earlier MYs but was deleted in, IIRC, 2012.
I haven't seen many posts about problems with trim or body parts. No more than any other car, anyway.

There are several threads on Z problems, some of them recent. If you can't find them using the site's search, try any major web search and add "site:the370z.com" to your search string.
