I might be spoiled with the power already on straightaways/highway onramps, of course on the canyon, it's got more than enough power. It just feels as if from 3rd to 4th the power is still there and then 4th to 5th, not so much. Hell, the FX35 that my old man drives has better feel from 4th to 5th.

Which I should note, it seems as if the VVEL from the VQ37 holds back. It's as if the VQ35HR feels like it has more torque than the VQ37. Just my opinion though.
the rev blip from 4th to 5th i feel is a ECU thing not the tranny actually slipping. i've heard it from many of the 7AT owners and i doubt every 7AT in the Z's are slipping lol

I always thought it was my 7AT being the odd one out, considering that I've taken it back and forth to the dealership for various issues. weird whistle noise, driveshaft clunk, windows going down when its supposed to go up, and etc. I still love my Z, but I was dead certain it was a quirky one.

Is there a way to tune the throttle blip so it doesn't happen?
