I don't want to derail a tech thread such as this much further, but don't let the warranty stop you. I have 100K mile aftermarket warranty, and I've got a few mods including a tune. Almost everything that's actually broken on my Z hasn't been covered by Nissan (CMC, rear diff bushing, idle issues). None of that stuff was related to mods, and multiple dealers never said a word about any of the mods except as a compliment. I DIY most everything that's gone wrong and even replaced my CSC as a preventative measure when my CMC failed. The dealer did a headliner replacement for me under warranty, but that's it. If you really think it will be a problem, then your compromise is to put the OEM stuff back on before you take it in for warranty service

Yeah, keeping the oem parts is a good call. I'm still new with the car, only had her for 5 months, so I'm gonna chip away at the mods after making sure I know what I want. Getting ready to have the CSC replaced since I'm getting clutch pedal stickiness, different engage point when cold and a rattling vibration in the pedal Luckily my warranty covers it, oddly enough, not the headliner. Definitely, gonna swap out my pedal assembly as well after that's done.
