Re: two races Z24 vs ZX3 and Z24 vs 350Z
How exactly is a rod thrown? Is it when you are going into 5th or 6th gear, but you go into 1st, 2nd, or 3rd instead? Or is it when you are past redline for an extended amount of time. Or is that something else?

It can happen at anytime. and by "rod" we mean conecting rod: the rod that wraps over the crank shaft and clips to the piston not a transmission shaft!
You throw rods usually due to badly worn internals, bad lubrication.

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.
