I skip gears all the time, if you do it too fast there is a "lock out" because it is still dropping revs. I usually run a 1-2-4-6 for getting on and highway driving. On the streets i cant really make it viable to get out of 4th around me... with every light there is. In the canyon i will usually run full gearing 1-6, usually stick in 4-5 and dont experience it.

I'm N/A and i have the same issue it is due to the gear rpm difference.

***I replied so you knew it wasnt an FI issue***

the problem is the clutch master cylinder. you do not notice it much before going to FI but once I did you could not shift into 6th like you are saying. I also changed out my clutch and flywheel as well when going to FI. these cylinders go out quite frequently on the Z and depending on your nissan dealership and if you are still under warranty they should replace it at no charge.
