The 370 has ESC, which a proper shop will recalibrate after an alignment per Nissan's factory recommendation, as it reads steering angle, yaw sensors, abs, etc.

Many shops do not have this technology, or do not know it is necessary, but a diagnostic tool is required to do this recal on a 370z. Some guys think unhooking the battery will reset it. I don't have Nissan's procedure in front of me, but unhooking the battery is ONE step in the Toyota procedure, but it is not the only step.

It is also common to disconnect the battery, so the brake lights don't kill it, as the brakes are locked for the majority of the alignment process.

I think you have to go through a few drive cycles before things get back to normal.
