you have to edit the ai.ini / aifs.ini

there you have to change the E1 in the Nod teams into your new Nod E1.

An annoying thing about separate E1's is that crewed structures wont always leave you with the correct E1 for your faction once sold or destroyed, a simple solution would be to make a generic infantry for crewed structures such as the technician.

Eh, different Infantry, in my mind, make to much trouble to be worth, now you have to find and change all the reinforcements in the missions. So unless your remaking the Nod campaign or the Nod faction you probably shouldn't split E1 like that.

Would adding the new graphics with the same name into sidec01/02.mix work? So an infantry SHP for Nod E1s called e1.shp would be put into sidec02 while the other for GDI would be put into sidec01. I'm only guessing, because I've never really thought about it before.

No. The sidec mix files are for the user interface only (cameos and sidemenu). They are loaded dependant on the side which you (the human player) choose. They are not used when the AI chooses a side. That's why it can't work at all even if the game would load unit SHPs from them. Because if you play GDI the game would load the gdi E1 which would then be used for Nod too.
