i'm doing an ls/vtec install right now, and the cable has about 2-3" to much between the little ball and the adjusting nuts. any idea how to get rid of that slack?

long time-no post, but H-T is worthless

This is the wrong forum. Why not just make a bracket that moves the mounting point closer to the DS?

im sorry, but im a ------- retard, and even i know the answer to this one

so your doing a ls/vtec.. but you cant figure out how to get rid of throttle cable slack :1

Wow man.

the distance between the closest to the end adjustment nut and the actual end of the cable is too long. i cant just "tighten the nut" till its snug.

I always cut and weld an extension peice on the bracket but really u can just buy the right cable

Tatakai

so basically get me a gsr cable?

I am actually using a gsr TB on a d16 LOL
what you need to do is to move the TB bracket up by using just the top bolt, then route the TB cable over the fuel filter side and it will fit. the cable does blind a LITTLe tho.

here's a pic of what i'm dealing with.
