Question about warranty w/Nismo parts
I understand the warranty is still good if you use Nismo parts but do they have to be installed by the dealer or can I do it myself and still keep it all warrantied?

Q: Will mods void my warranty?
A: A dealership cannot "void the warranty on the whole car" just because you have a JWT popcharger or aftermarket wheels. If they are trying to deny warranty service, they must prove that the mod caused the problem.
Of course, adding a turbo kit (for example) can put a lot of stress on the engine itself, as well as to the drivetrain. Don't be surprised if the dealer refuses to perform warranty service on a heavily modified car, that's just common sense.
This is all part of the "Magnuson-Moss" Warranty Act, which protects consumers against shady business practice by:
Quote:
The Act makes it easier for purchasers to sue for breach of warranty by making breach of warranty a violation of federal law, and by allowing consumers to recover court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.
(In short, if they try to void your warranty and your mod could not have caused the problem, sue the bastards...)
More info can be found here

THAT SAID, if your mod *did* cause the problem, then it's your problem and you have to deal with it.

What I can't believe is not one person took the few seconds it would have taken to write yes or no. Nobody even gave me a direct answer. I think some of you maybe spend a little too much time on here looking for the negative to say instead of the positive.

or maybe you should spend more time on here looking for the answer instead of asking people to spoon feed you.
I mean hell, post #3 gives you a link to the 100 most asked questions on this forum.
oh and FYI, I answered your question in post #2.

oh wait, that is basic information you could get from the dealer or the nismo website also.
Did you sign up on the forum just to ask that question? You did, didnt you?
