As the title suggests, I just bought brand new splitfire coils from just jap as well as a brand new genuine coil loom. I bought them because I was starting to develop a small misfire but also have my tcs and slip lights on and was informed by race pace that coils would fix it. After failing to fix my tcs issue my car now has a pretty serious misfire. The spark plugs were replaced very recently too so they are fine. Any suggestions on why the misfire would be much appreciated, and any information on the tcs and slip lights would also be super helpful

Tcs and slip lights don't have fault codes.

They do.  You can use ANY decent scan tool to pull the fault codes out of ALL the CUs in the car.  That's ECU, TCU, ABS/TCS and HICAS.  There are even procedures* for putting those CUs into diagnostic modes and the idiot light on the dash will blink the codes at you.

 

*that involve turning around three times with you hand on your head, shouting "Wiggle wiggle wiggle" and doing 5 star jumps while reversing slowly at <1 km/h.

I have read the manual back to front and to only way to read error codes from the abs/tcs is using a Nissan consult device, not just "ANY decent scan tool". The method for bridging two pins to get into diagnostics mode doesn't work for TCS. Unless you have some magical method for doing this which I would love to hear about

    • If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!    
    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
