This game is really great but I'm stuck ;)
My active quest:
1) Find a way home
2) Travel to the Anomaly - when I click on the anomaly a message appears 'destination cannot be reached with current engine performance'. There is no better engine in the shop than the one I currently have (Pulse Engine MkI). What should I do? I have AI core, positron, flux and output controler... Where I find Engine MkII?
3) Going for it (have sex with T'Ris) - when i ask for favour on T'Ris on 19 o'clock she rejects me. text 'I need to get help from someone. Maybe Nimhe'. I searched and found a character named Nimhe in the city at 22 o'clock., but he doesn't want to talk to me and says: 'i told you to get lost' :(

The engine has three "configuration lanes".
Just complete another lane (use Tunneling Devices if you miss a specific part)
Nimhe can only be hired once you encountered the precursors at the Zone 75 Junkyard. Fix up your engine and go there.
There is an updated walkthrough in the OP that describes it in more detail.
