Hi,

I am almost done my rebuild but one thing I still need ot get is a new throttle cable but I am unsure what cable is long enough for the forward facing plenum in a r32.

I remember reading it elsewhere but have been searching and also asked a few members off here and to no avail, I hope osmsone can;t enlighten me.

Cheers

Cameron

i've just searched and read through a few different threads but none are clear cut (i have been at uni for while so my eyes are half asleep so i may of missed it :D)

Some say the r31 cable works others say its double the length required

Some some the vl cable works, but if thats the same cable as a r31 it may not.

Some say the sr20de cable fits perfectly

Some say just get the stock one modified (which i wouldnt want to do)

So who has fitted a greddy plenum and went out and bought a new cable that fits perfectly (ie no 90degree bends), and what car did it come off? Not really after, i think its this or that, but i need 100% sure. I'll be fitting one this week and i will be buying a new cable for it so i need to know its will be right :O

:P

Yes I tried the search but noone has a definitive answer to what to use,

Some say a U12 Bluebird with a sr20de

I want something that itsnt goign to be stretched or hard angles to get it to work.

    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
    • Thanks for sharing this, and BTW if your headlights are in good condition they are worth thousands....you might want to consider replacing them with brand new LED ones like this (https://www.nengun.com/78works/full-led-headlights-r32-skyline) and making enough profit to buy a house in Sydney
    • I'm not sure what sort of shops are nearby, but I'd expect any reasonable exhaust shop could put a cat in it that will not restrict the power that engine makes. Otherwise, if you want to remove it, short lengths that replace the cat are readily available online, search for "de-cat pipes" or "test pipes"
