i have a 2001 nissan 25hp tiller i am trying to figure out which starter kit i need. i have found some but there is two different types. which do i need? and yes i know it is expensive....

Remember that year means nothing on these motors; precise model/serial is critical. I'm guessing that you have an NS25C3 2-stroke, right? The differences relate to whether you have a Tiller-steered model or a remote-steered model. On the Remote model, you will want an electric choke, activated by the push-to-choke feature of the ignition switch on the RC box. That of course doesn't apply to a tiller motor, so there is your difference.

For the F type (tiller steered), the correct kit is 3P0763000M ELECTRIC START KIT F TYPE $579.20
You also will need 398760830M ACTUATOR, NEUTRAL SWITCH $7.47
and 346760820M PLATE, NEUTRAL SWITCH $3.43

These are available from any dealer, including me.

To begin with, the components are sealed (so no sparking), or "marine grade". Then you need to understand that there are safety switches, wiring harnesses, solenoids, battery cables, brackets, bolts and associated bits, in addition to the starter motor itself. Also, the kit is low production. Hence the commensurate pricing. Not a popular upgrade, due to cost alone.

There is no pat answer for the prop pitch. Each and every boat is different. You must do trial and error testing to get the best prop for your needs. For a prop selection chart, see http://www.nissanmarine.com/accessories/prop_chart.html
