Turn it off (pull the battery if necessary), and keep both volume-up
and volume-down pressed while booting (yes, it's possible). That'll
get you straight into fastboot mode, and from there you should be able
to flash a factory image, then a custom build.

The exact sequence doesn't matter, you can flash them in any order.
You can add "fastboot erase cache" for extra cleanliness.
Personally, when working on custom builds from source, I use "fastboot
flashall", or "fastboot -w flashall" when I want to wipe all data.

You'll find all the detailed information on this page:
http://source.android.com/source/building-devices.html and that'll
show you which build config to use, how to get to the bootloader,
where to download the proprietary binaries
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers and everything
else you should need.

Indeed, there are no 4.0.2 binaries, because 4.0.3 was already
available (and preparing and testing the binaries takes a lot of
effort).

You can flash the system only. Don't have to flash everything.
Unless you make changes to stuff that might be kept in userdata.img, then you'll need to flash both images (or erase userdata)
