Good newwws everyone.
I think the problem was awful timing and warn out starter. Bad news is I didnt have to take the engine out and now i need more fluids. Oh well.

Ye need more Nissan
Thats a balls you had to take it out to figure that out! But it's still cheaper than a rebuild!
Good news, the starter motor works. Bad news is the compression is still down. Good news is it's deffo a problem with either the valve seats or springs. So I just need to get the head looked over. Not a big job. But while I save, the engine will go back in. Who knows, it might start better with the timing corrected and perhaps a good spark of fuel will seat the valves back in. Or something.
Getting close now! Got the engine back in without a hitch and all thats left to hook up is exhaust, turbo and plugs. Still a bit of work to be done on the manifold.
