Google Evap core cleaner. Basically they sell cans of this available at most auto parts stores. You stick the tube into the drain of Evap core and the cleaner foams up into Evap core and kills the bacteria from water sitting there.

Then what I would suggest is if you run ac, when you get a few minutes from destination turn ac off but leave fan blowing on high. This will "dry off" the condensation that remains and prevent the water from pooling and growing the bacteria that you likely smell.

I've seen a few of these threads on here. I am not aware of how common it is for 370z. But my wife's oddysey this was/is a known issue. So typically once a year add the cleaner and all is well.
