No. They didn't do it with my Z06, at least. Unless some lot-tech who loads your car gets happy with it, it's not going to see redline until you do that.
Obviously my Z06 isn't a 370Z, but...
Dyno at around 2,000rpm run on natural gas to verify hp.
That's it.
Other than the 4-wheel alignment which has a max rpm if about 4600 or so, IIRC before a notification is received electronically to the big boss man and a phone-call is placed to Bowling Green and someone gets it. My car saw something like 4200 on it while I watched. That's it. Just going through the gears to get to cruising.
