Which states that the 3rd Gen has a "shimless bucket" Looking at the pictures here http://www.rossmachineracing.com/3sbucket.html Shows the difference between the 2nd gen 3SGTE bucket and the MRS bucket My Buckets look like the MRS bucket but with a removable shim (on the underside) that I could change to alter the thickness without buying whole new buckets.... now the only trick is to source a "shim" from somewhere shouldn't be toooo hard. Preguntas? Problemas? Comments? I will append my own posting..... also from the same toyota nation posting Q: Whats shimless or shim under bucket lifters? A: The stock bucket weighs 1.6 oz. & the MRS(MR Spyder) weighs 1.03 oz. That is a weight savings of 35.5%. When high lift cams are used with stock lifters it has caused the shims that are used for adjusting cam/lifter clearance to fly out. This eliminates that by eliminating the shim all together. That lightens the valvetrain weight and allows higher RPM limits.
