Anyone have any experience or recommendations in regards to mods and factory warranty? This is the only thing that is causing me to delay any mods.

Bolt-ons are ok.

But when you start messing with the motor SC/Turbo then that's when warranty goes out the window.

Or when you start customizing headlight housing, that voids it's warranty.

Tuning the engine, though you can get away with it with a flash back to stock.

I have heard conflicting stories about this one. They can tell if it has been flashed

You are right, there are conflicting stories about it.

I'm trying to get a hold of the Nismo Tech at Woodbine nissan to see if they can flash it for me to keep it under warranty.

I am just scoping things out at the moment, I don't want to go hogs wild considering I just got it a few months ago. The recommendations in this thread are great and extremely helpful.

My initial thoughts are to go for the air intakes and a new exhaust, so I am just looking at my options for those right now.

I did buy one mod tho..... A new antenna.... Stubby one.....yeah I know, but small steps lead to bigger ones

That's a good start, it'll snowball don't worry lol.

For bigger mods, I think I would skip the intakes and go for Exhaust. Mine just came with them, and I'm too lazy to take them off.

HFC + Exhaust = good to go
