I afraid I was going to push it to get gas....

That is not fuel starve. That is the trip computer not knowing how much is left to go.
Fuel starve means that you're low on fuel and driving hard (I mean TRACKING IT hard) and you take a sweeping right turn with low fuel, and the G forces pull the fuel away from where it is grabbed from the tank, shutting the car down. That is fuel starve. Not knowing how many miles you can go before running out of gas, that's nothing. As a rule of thumb, I always assume I have less than thirty miles to go in any car with the fuel light on. Just fuel up when your gas light comes on and it's not a problem.
As for fuel starve, most Z owners will never drive their cars hard enough to ever experience it.

LOL, the oil cooler cost me 600+, but its a big one tho

Mine cost 400 and we installed it in an afternoon. Fixes the oil heat issues permanently. Brake heat issues can be addressed with higher tolerance brake fluid (60 bux), better pads (300 bux), and if you're really feeling frisky, the Stillen brake cooling kit, but that's not necessary.
At the end of the day, trade the Z if you want to. We only go around once in life. Test drive the FRS/BRZ, and if you like it more, then trade it. What's good for me is not necessarily good for you.
