Anyone else: Will this modification complicate a warranty claim?

1993 Mazda RX-7 Touring, about 1,200 miles. I'm considering a mild modification that shouldn't directly affect the part I'm worried about, but I don't want to create a warranty headache. How do you decide which mods are worth waiting on until the warranty is over? Trying to diagnose before I book a shop.

Owner notes beat generic advice here. On the 1993 Mazda RX-7 in Austin, I'd fix the thing you'll notice every day before chasing spec-sheet extras. That's where I'd start. On “will this modification complicate a warranty claim,” that was the fork that mattered for me. This is from a 1993 Mazda RX-7 in Austin with 1,200 miles. Was this after sitting overnight? I'd rather look cautious in this thread than stuck later.

I'd keep this practical. Verify the cheap/easy branch on the 1993 Mazda RX-7 before a big repair or a big spend. Then you'll know the next fork. This is from a 1993 Mazda RX-7 in Austin with 1,200 miles. Monthly payment math is how wallets disappear. I've seen both outcomes, which is why I'd test instead of assume. Doing the boring step first on purpose.
