Get a new/used cable that fit and use the Type R throttle bracket on the manifold.

Or

Ditch the 3 point.

simple fix for the gsr throttle bodies is get a throttle cam (bracket attaches to throttle shaft which the cable goes on) from a b/d/h/f throttle body so the cable can be routed from the other side. Then you would need the approciate throttle cable bracket to bolt onto the manifold and it would work.
