Just like it says. I have a highport SR20DE (1992) and I need a valve shim tool. Been trying to get a hold of Yahnozha over at CS, but he's out till later this week and I'm soooooooo close to getting this done I just need to shim the valves, bolt the head on, and throw my S4's in. If I can't get one before he gets back to me, I'll buy his, but until then - anyone got one?

you can use a dial indicator on a regular base. you just have to find a way of keeping it flat and steady. not sure if your head is on or off the car. If its off, theres a million ways to do it. On the car, a little trickier but still possible.

Thanks for the tip - the head is off the car, but I'm not sure how I'm going to get that dial indicator to read from the exact same distance twice in a row. I could cut/weld/bend a piece of sheet steel into place to create a collar for it to sit in, but it would probably be faster just to wait for someone to offer me one (or wait for Yahnozha, as it were)
