You may want to consider writing a bootstrapper that strings together
your MSI and NSIS packages and installs them sequentially. You can
write the bootstrapper in NSIS as well. Then all you need is a simple
NSIS uninstall script that calls uninstall on your packages. This way
you can avoid all the issues with Custom Actions that you will have by
shoving everything into an MSI.

How is that a change to your requirement? I could tell you how to do
this, but I don't feel like advocating what I consider to be a
horrible design. This should get you the information you need, but I
guarantee you'll be back on this mailing list in a short period of
time trying to resolve issues or on a different forum trying to
resolve deployment problems.

Slight change to our requirement here as I can see why the other
method would
be unreliable.
1 - Launch the MSI, this launches our NSIS installer which
installs silently
(I've already got this working). This also installs our NSIS
uninstall exe.
2 - Running the MSI uninstaller should launch our NSIS uninstaller
exe -
this is the bit I'm stuck on
