Default B18C5 / ITR motor in an EK...throttle cable?

I currently have a 97 civic coupe with a GSR swap. I'm using a GSR throttle cable and bracket that my buddy lent me. I'm pulling the swap for a 98 ITR motor, which has the throttle cable bracket attached to the ITR intake manifold.

Do I HAVE to use the ITR throttle cable, or can I run a B16 or LS throttle cable on an ITR EK?

You should be able to reuse it or may need only to change the throttle cable bracket.

Did you read the thread? I don't have a throttle cable, and I'm wondering if I NEED to buy an ITR throttle cable, or if a B16 or LS throttle cable would work.

The cable will work so long as the bracket is moved a bit. I had a shop ghetto fab one for me.
