When talking about fuel starvation most people are referring to a few cases where when the 370z gas tank gets down to about a quarter of a tank it has issues with the fuel pump being able to get the last few gallons of fuel to the engine due to the design of the fuel tank. Having said that the suggestion of a 14 gallon tank wouldnt make any difference cause then you would be complaining about having to fill up on gas more often, most people who browse these forums know very well about the fuel starvation issue so it shouldnt be a surprise to anyone.

Fuel starvation is typically a problem when you are driving on the track or driving aggressively on the street - the car stumbles when it can't get gas in a turn (or hard braking?) when you are getting below a quarter tank or so.
