It's not that bad IMHO. Ironically tho' my smallest car has the most room, my '91 B13 SE-R. Helps with the battery out of the way, but most everything is readily accessible, it's so much easier to work on the SR20DE than the VQ35DE. But, when you think about the power per cc, our VQ's are pretty darn good for the displacement.

But it is hard to beat changing 4 plugs in about 20 minutes

Took me about 1.5 hours , and it would have been less if the one side cooperated .
