What other USDM motors share gen3 under bucket shims?

I've been searching a while for a direct replacement shim for gen3 shim-under-bucket shims.

I'm going to be installing cams and adjusting valve clearances and want to be able to source new shims of the right thicknesses.

I found these gen3 OEM shim part numbers while searching:

13753-88003 T=2.50 mm
13753-88053 T=2.55 mm
13753-88103 T=2.60 mm
13753-88153 T=2.65 mm
13753-88203 T=2.70 mm
13753-88253 T=2.75 mm
13753-88303 T=2.80 mm
13753-88353 T=2.85 mm
13753-88403 T=2.90 mm
13753-88453 T=2.95 mm
13753-88503 T=3.00 mm
13753-88553 T=3.05 mm
13753-88603 T=3.10 mm
13753-88653 T=3.15 mm
13753-88703 T=3.20 mm
13753-88753 T=3.25 mm
13753-88803 T=3.30 mm
13753-88853 T=3.35 mm
13753-88893 T=3.39 mm

.... does anyone know if these are available in the US, or if there are shims of identicle spec from another Toyota motor readily available at US Toyota dealers?

I've left parts requests at several dealers/members but have yet to hear back.

Thanks!

those #'s dont work in the partznet system, so that makes me assume there are no usdm cars that use them?

I can help you with shimes as long as you know the EXACT mm to 0.05 from Toyota or you can just get an engineering shop to make them for you down to 0.01 )
