Timing belt/chain specifications
I tend to enter details into EuroCarParts or eBay sites to see if they are listing belt or chain for each engine type If in doubt about belt replacement history then changing it is the best way forward

Wanting to buy a Pulsar
Good luck in your search and may be worth considering countries like Malta, Cyprus and maybe Portugal for any that were sold out there in RHD and they would be in rust free condition and no tax to pay as they are old vehicles

Front tire matching 2005-2012
I would imagine if the front hubs are manually unlocked then it should be fine but if auto locked hubs then potentially the different rolling diameter would affect the transfer box, etc....so probably worth ensuring all four tyres are same tread depth as near as possible

Fan blower resistor
I have always managed to find replacement resistor packs for most cars on eBay More than likely would be the same for most Nissan models - remove it and compare to images of them on eBay
-
Ignition switch and barrel
I would ask your local Nissan dealer as to cost and availability of the parts and go from there If its a reasonable price for parts and fitting then would be worth fixing it

Service Fault on 2016 Pulsar - how to diagnose
First thing I would do is to go around the car and clean all the external sensors and cameras (including front screen ADAS)

Brain damage
I think your mechanic is right and certainly worth a try for the cost of a secondhand ECU My only concern is how is has been damaged in the first place - short circuit in wiring, water ingress, etc

air bag warning light flashing
I would check the connections under the seats (ignition off) and see if secure or damaged in any way You could use a resistor to see if that works but do not apply resistance checks to the SRS components (airbags, pretensioners, etc) If the vehicle has been in a crash and the airbag module has sensed this then you will need to replace the module but believe a secondhand one should work straight away and cancel the code

Tyre pressure sensors
Aftermarket valves would more than likely sort it Try DemonTweeks for motor racing valves - have used them on my motorbike and far better than standard items

Nissan QX
You may be able to get a rebuild kit that comes with new seals Easy enough job to remove the pistons, clean up and fit new seals to rectify the issue

Electric seats on 2022 tekna plus
It should be something like selecting the individual seat position and then depressing the position number 1 or 2 button (depending on who is driving at the time) for a short period of time

Need help with noisy transmission and jerking
Not sure but sounds like a Dual Mass Flywheel failing which can cause those sounds and also lead to the vehicle jerking. You can tell this when you switch the engine off and the rattling continues for a very short while afterwards
