Sounds like Stillen.... Your best bet is probably to take the idler out and go to a bearing shop. They should be able to get you something that would work for relatively cheap.

I don't see why getting in touch with z1 would be all that helpful for a fwd nissan.

OP post a picture and some measurements to see if there is something that we can come up with.
