Rb25 Greddy Inlet, What Throttle Cable?

[works 510]

Lads,

This has prob been covered a heap of times, did a search, doesnt exactly tell me anything 100% correct.

I need a longer throttle cable, what did you use? something from another car, custom, etc?

Just for the sake of info, I have a copy inlet manifold, the cable lines up like arse and am using a Q45 throttlebody.

Cheers,

Dan

I used a VL cable,

Just did a loop next to the strut tower to get rid of the excess.. worked well

Also needed to make up a couple of split washers to crimp over the cable going through the accelerator peddle.

on my rips front facing plenum I used a throttle cable out of a SSS bluebird, about 12cm longer and exactly same fittings, $35 from a wrecker... done.

There is a Greddy "how to" in the DIY area.

It covers all parts required, how/what etc.

S14

Standard one does work If you do the bracket right. I can send you a photo if you want

I used a 300zx one. approx 25-30 longer

I used one from an S13... You've got heaps of options

Sorry I took a while

Here is the Greddy copy plenum with the R33 GTST standard cable. hope it helps, its not the best photo sorry

Theres a bit of a harsh bend on the cable but its been working fine since the start of this year

i run the same setup as 89cal and its been on car 2yrs

[89CAL]

Yeah the angle looks a bit harsh but the cable still moves smoothly

I think it's the original throttle cable bracket that was on the stock plenum just bent a bit

[l0WRB]

sure is

[89CAL]

Sweet lol. I couldn't remember cause I played around with the bracket that came with the plenum and the original so couldn't remember
