On paper it seems they should be very close, closer than that video looks.

From motor trend 2017 370z test:

“At the drag strip, the base 2017 Nissan 370Z reached 60 mph in 5.2 seconds and finished the quarter mile in 13.7 seconds at 102.7 mph. We've tested eight other 370Z models, including two convertibles and two NISMO models, since it arrived for the 2009 model year. In testing, past models reached 60 mph in 4.7-5.1 seconds and ran the quarter mile in 13.3-13.6 seconds at 102.9-107.2 mph.”

From Car and Driver 2008 335 test:

0-to-60-mph time: 4.8 sec
Quarter-mile time: 13.5 @ 106 mph
well from what i know from talking to the driver at a red light its completely stock and he has literally gotten it that day. so driver experience could have had a role in it. but like you said, who knows if its even running right. The 370z almost has a straight pipe, just with a muffler. no tune or any other modifications.
