I do an in depth time line with important plot devices which have to exist to carry the story, which helps with the pace too.
then when I write, most often fleshing out the details is not nearly as hard when you know you have to include A, B, and C. The timeline itself is in a constant state of flux as I add to subplots. This helps me do things like include small details with huge relivence which I may otherwise forget, while letting the story "uncover" itself, as Stephen King says in "On Writing".
