No, the factory fill is not Nissan ester oil - Nissan recommends that dealers change a 370Z's fill to the ester oil if there is excessive drive train noise. Last time I was at my dealer (a few months ago), that was still the case according to them (they said that the factory fill is still a regular 5W30 non-ester oil).
