This design element has not been present for current motors, including the 370Z, so you won't see the need.

True statement, the starvation of cylinders 1 & 2 with the 03-05 models was the same issue with the 06 model which came with a reshaped lower plenum. Motordynes upper and lower plenum kit included a swapped out original lower plenum with a reshaped 03-05 Z33 lower plenum.
I could not believe the Z34's upper plenum is plastic. Reminds me of something Skunk or Kinetix would mfg and those were known to crack. Fingers crossed for a tight seal and cold air.
