Default Converted a drive-by-wire throttle body to cable type

Just got this put together last night, it's for my VQ35DE into 240sx project. I didn't have room for a regular type throttle body so I modified the stock Z unit while retaining the built in throttle position sensor.

I think I'm still the only one with this motor and this chassis (s14), there's a couple people with the 3.0 in the older chassis - s13 though.



I've got a ton of pics at http://www.engineswaptech.com under the photo section, have a look around and sign in if you get a chance .

Well, I'm running a Megasquirt II standalone so that gives me a lot of flexability so turbocharging is definately in the back of my mind. I'd like to run a single turbo mounted infront of the engine possibly but for now I just want to enjoy it non turbo, should run a high 12 with some traction!
