Custom Length Throttle Cables
Never had to make one before, but I was considering installing the cruise control from my old '93 Si (long gone) into my EG6. However, since the cable wont reach, and as far as I know, there were no JDM cars with cruise control, I need to make a longer throttle cable to reach from the cruise controller unit to the pedal set.
Are there any types of shops I can call to have one made or are there supplies I can buy online to make one? Any help would be appreciated.

You could try the bike industry most of the sifter cables and brake cables use the same style ends and can be bought in some long lengths. Just a thought.

Re: Custom Length Throttle Cables (instructor74)
Thanks, I'll look into that and see if I can make something work. It seems to me that some of the DC2 Integra's had the same shaped cruise box that mounted in the engine bay, but the cable mounted to the throttle body (instead of going to the pedal set). Can anyone confirm that? It may be easier than trying to make a custom cable to go to the pedal set and I've got a GSR motor in the car.

Yeah, but that's such a hack. I'd prefer to go 1 continuous cable.
