Default b20vtec: what throttle cable?!?!

im currently using a ITR throttle cable on stock gsr throttle body w/ the bracket on a b20vtec in a ek hatch....but since now i got a GSR skunk2 intake manifold and the throttle cable sits way to high and the cable seems to be really long w/ extra cable....is there a shorter throttle cable i can use on my b20vtec? thanks in advance!

You must be using a GSR throttle cable, because a type R cable will not work with the GSR throttle body and bracket (it is way too short). So get a type R cable!

no actually the type r is not to short...and yes it would fit on it i dont see why it wouldnt. i have both throttle cables and the type r is just a lil bit shorter but not short enough i guess for me...because it still has extra slack thats effecting my throttle body to be at full use.

Actually the gsr throttle cable is a lot longer than the ITR! The ITR cable mounts to the middle of the intake mani, where the GSR goes all the way over the intake mani, and mounts high above the throttle body. If you want a fairly short on get a 95 accord 4cyl.
