You may also want to consider changing your transmission and rear dif fluid. The factory fluid isn't great. A quality fluid in both can make a noticeable difference. I also use redline in both. Is your Z a manual or automatic?

I asked the same question to the service advisor in the dealer about ester oil, he told me they put ester oil on the new engine, and then mobil-1 from the 1st oil change.
