the b16 hatch is STRANDED....HELP!

[ZackieDarko]

I was geting onto a freeway and my throttle cabled snaped mid 3rd to 4th shift sounded like a big balloon went POP

the cable snaped about 1" from the gas pedeal so it snaped inside the car..but when i look under the hood i cant find the rest of the cable...weird


oh yes..my cars cruise was removed so the cable went from the gas pedal to the TB


can i use any FI cable? or does it have to be from a non cruise car?

anybody got one laying around that I can use?

[russiankid]

The cruise control has its own cable that connects to the gas pedal, then theres a separate cable that connects to the TB. I assume that you can just use a 3g FI cable.

i found that B18 integra throttle cable fits quite nicely

no modifications needed?

hard to say. im using a B16 intake manifold modded for an A20, but at the same time the bracket that holds the throttle cable in place is from an integra. i doubt their any different, but i didnt modify anything to fit the throttle cable at all and it fits fine.

yeah when i was researching my b16 mani swap i heard that the Integra GSR cable is the best because our stock cable is long and that one is like 5 inches shorter making it look better under the hood. let me figure out witch one im going to order.

[ZackieDarko]

well i can definetly confirm that the stock 88-89 LXi auto cable works

glad to see you got it back up so quickly.

I'm using a stock 86 lxi throttle cable on my B18 manifold, I had to make a custom bracket to get it all to align, but it works pretty well.

But I like newaccorddriver's idea of just using the integra bracket.

the only reason i got myself an integra throttle cable was because of the sketchy bracket that i had made. that and a side by side comparison of the 2 cables were almost identical except for the part which attaches to the pedal, but that wasnt an issue at all.

I used the same thing (b18a) on my swap, Im pretty sure the b16 and b18a use the same throttle cable.
