If using oem gsr Intake manifold you have to use the gsr cable and bracket. But if using aftermarket Intake manifold you should be able to use b16, b18b or itr cable and bracket. You may be able to rig up your single cam cable.

Different brands of intake manifolds will require specific cable/bracket combinations, so consult the installation instructions for the particular product purchased.

I just bought a throttle cable from O’Reilly but now the issue is the part that connects to the firewall doesn’t fit.Would I need to file down a bit of the firewall ?

Why would you get a throttle wire from O'Reilly instead of Honda ? You shouldn't have to cut or file ANYTHING !!!

Try a 92-95 d series throttle cable it will work.

Or a B16 throttle body and a 99-00 si cable.

@JRCivic1 Would you happen to know off hand what cable/bracket I should use with a Skunk2 Ultra street manifold in an EG?

Right now I have an OEM EG Si cable, and just from looking I can tell that the included bracket from S2 isn't going to line up right. It's Skunk so of course there's 0 information they provide on it.

You can always buy an OEM ITR throttle cable and bracket and that should work! same setup im using.

Thank you, yeah I thought that's what I'll need to do but was hoping to hear otherwise since I just bought a new 93 Si cable a couple months ago lol.

I hope it works for you. If not, I wonder if it would work for my '94 Si w/ B18C1 and GSR intake?
