240SilviaX is an unknown quantity at this point
Adding a #17 shim shouldn't add width to the pumpkin itself since when you torque the ring gear bolts it goes back to the stock width specifications since its compresses the internals which gives you the after market lsd feeling. unless you have a gap and the punkin is not completely together. Mine took the same bearing shim sizes. They are supposed to be tight against the races. Did you use oil when installing them? cuz they wont go in when dry. In the FSM they show that they use a #21 shim installation tool that you use a hammer to tap them in. Hopefully your bearings are close within stock specifications and wont wobble around in there cuz of the smaller shim space.
