Default y8 manifold w/ B16 TB on z6 motor in '91 Si CRX what throttle cable and bracket needed? searched...

Alright guys searching only produced one result for me and it did not really help me. Like the title says I have a '91 CRX Si and I have a D16z6 in it with a '99 y8 manifold and '93 JDM B16 TB and I now know the Si cable will not work. The only info I found said to use the y8 throttle cable (which I assumed) but it also said to flip the bracket upside down to make it work?? that part seems weird to me and since I have not seen pics I can't quite see why that would be necessary? I need this car running soon and I just need to know what cable to look for so I can hopefully avoid having to wait 3-5 days from the dealer for a new one. here are some pics of my setup





If you know what I need please let me know, pics would not hurt either thanks

is the cable too short? if so, did you try flipping the brackett around? so the little fork is facing the TB?

Yes it's too short, no I did not try to flip the bracket because you can see in the pics the bracket would be damn close to being right on top of the TB which would do the exact opposite of what I need. If need be I can modify a bracket, the main question I have is which cable to run. I am pretty sure I'll need a y8 but I wanted to confirm from somebody with this same setup cause I know there are other swaps like this on here.

Im using the orginal throttle cable. It's a crx, I'm running the y8 manifold with a h22 throttle bodie. On a Z6, works fine for me.

If not try using the one bracket that came with the z6 manifold (if you have one) But i'll try and take a picture for you. clean engine bay

If you can make a bracket any d-series cable will work. You should be able to make something work with the stock a6 bracket by flipping it around/upsidedown putting one bolt in it and useing the stock cable. its about a 15 min job.

I have had, a6, z8, y8 im's and itb's on my car (ef si) all with the stock a6 cable.

Well I found a bracket that allows me to use my stock cable so it's all good now
