Do it, man. I looked at that linked thread and those 4.08s look like the ideal gear with a 7,200rpm limiter (~107mph). That means you should be coming across the finish line in the meat of 4th which is perfect. With a fairly short 1st, you might want to consider some sticky rubber. You really should take advantage of all that torque multiplication with a nice set of 26" slicks on 15" rims.

This shouldn't void warranties... The dealer wouldn't even know unless they race your car or something.

You'll be fine. I talked to an couple of people who have had this modification for a while and took it to the dealer countless times. No problem at all, he also does premium service every visit. As do an couple others.

As for the installation, try hitting up the regional forum on My350z, that is how I found the shop I brought my car to. Good luck!
