Issues with my Z HELP!

Agreed...there are several documented cases where engines that have been replaced due to oil consumption. If anything else, the oil cooler saved you engine just a few second LONGER since it increased the total oil volume.

I am attempting to get the NSB Code from my guy at Nissan now so you guys can reference it from now on. I tried looking for it myself and failed.

I have spoken with Nissan in the past regarding warranty claims and aftermarket parts. The easiest way I can summarize it is the following:

As long as you do not go into the engine's internals (pistons, valvetrain, cylinder head) or the internals of the drivetrain you will be covered. As mentioned above, they may also deny the claim if the aftermarket part is linked to the failure.

Just food for thought...I wonder what they would claim had it you installed a Nissan Motorsports Oil Cooler kit as opposed to the Stillen??
