Default Throttle body question

I just swapped a obd2 jdm b18c into my 94 civic coupe and i'm having problems with the throttle. The intake manifold is obviously jdm and curves up unlike the manifold that came in the usdm gsr's that curved down and i dunno if thats part of my problem or what, but the problem i'm having is the original throttle cable that came in the coupe wont hook up to the throttle body. The rotor or whatever the heck you call it on the throttle body seems to be backwards. I did a search, but really couldnt find any threads with any kind of answer. If anyone has any info that might help me I would really appreciate it, thanks.
