shims

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone i was wondering if u could all do me a favour? If u know
of or are gonna visit a nissan garage or specialist garage that may
have shims in stock could you ask them and email me direct as to who
they are if they have.I dont really want to have to wait 3 months or more while
nissan japan get their fingers out of their a**es to send em.Please
note hiteq,dp motorsport and becker in germany dont have em.
cheers NIJ

Do the shims from any other car fit? I know montegos/maestro turbos use them. Just a thought.
