Default Skunk2 intake...which throttle cable bracket?

What do I need to use to get my throttle cable to fit under my strut tower bar now? I had a stock GSR intake and just swapped on a Skunk2. Is there a factory bracket or do I need to fab one? Thanks.

Edit: I found some pics of Toms car. It looks like a different throttle cable. I still have my stock DX cable on the car but looped it around the other way for the GSR. Anyone know what cable he's using?

With the skunk2 manifold on a gsr you retain your GSR throttle cable and bracket. You can convert from having it loop around (GSR) to going across the manifold by getting a Type R throttle cable bracket, Type R throttle cable, and a Type R throttle rotor.

I did some more research and found this on Hybridgarage.com...

"The GSR throttle body needs to be modified to work properly. The stock pulley was replaced with a DX pulley and an adapter can be easily fabricated from a strip of aluminum."
You can keep the stock cable (dx) but need to make a bracket and route it from the drivers side across the front of the manifold. This will keep it low enough to clear the strut tower brace. It clears the hood right now with the old GSR bracket but I wanted to still use the brace.

Thanks Sleeper for the link.


edit: spelling
