Today was warm enough for the problem to come back. I find myself stabbing the throttle in traffic from 1st-3rd. It makes an S2000 feel like a torque monster down low. A visit to the dealership is scheduled for Tuesday after work, and I will be driving with a tech. They will keep the car overnight and do another test the next morning for comparison purpose, but I was also asked to drive another Z as well.
For anyone who encounter this issue, please park the car in neutral and observe the response time, rev level, and how long it holds before it drops back to idle:
1) Quickly stab the pedal to the floor and release it.
2) Fully press the pedal to the floor in a more casual fashion.
3) Turn off the car and let it "cool off" for about a minute.
4) Turn it back on and repeat steps 1 and 2.
I did this today and got some interesting results. I got done recording video with oil temps close to 220F. Tomorrow morning I will do normal vids after the car warms up and upload it on YouTube.
