My advice.... change the fluid after your break-in period (around 5-10K miles). And, put some decent synthetic fluid in the diff.
Totally agreed with 6MT,i just changed the rear axle oil yesterday,just 13,000Km,the oil was dark grey with alot of metal filling,even i am a 'soft driver',i advice ALL 370z owners change your oil as soon as possible.
