Replace Rocker Arm Shims? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Last month my rocker arms came loose during a 3rd to 2ns gear shift and the only problem now is that I am unable to find 2 of the shims the rocker arms sit on.

The shims are very tiny & they look like watch batteries. From what I can tell they are some type of metal and not organic/rubber. Does anyone know where I can find replacement shims for my SR20DET? Does the Sentra SE-R shims share the same size shims as us?

Also, where does anyone think they are? If they are not in the head, I am not sure where else to look.

Thanks for any info...
