I'm not very good at heel-toe but the pedals in the Z just do not inspire confidence. Sure I might be able to hit both with the edges of my shoe, but that does not inspire confidence, especially for a novice. I'd really hate to have the edge of my shoe slip off one or both peddles in the middle of a high-speed apex; that wouldn't be pretty.
The pedals definitely need to be bigger, or at least wider.

How about doing it the easy and free way. Just remove the entire throttle pedal assembly and then bend it so the throttle pedal is 1/2-3/4" closer to the brake? I tried to do it in the car without removal, but it's impossible.
