I got my Type R Strut bar but when i laid it across to see how it will mounts up i ran into one problem. The Bracket that holds the throttle cable is in the way. I did some research and found some pictures of a Skunk2 intake manifold and seen a small bracket that might make it work to have enough clearance. Will i have to replace the cable to make this work or will the cable i have now will work?


Not enough space to to clear the cable

You need a bracket like the one in the last pic. One from a d-series will work, even if you only use one bolt it will work.

so I can reuse my cable without having to get a longer one?

Yup, there is a rubber spacer on the throttle cable where it attaches to the pedal bracket that you may need to cut off but it will work.
