If your going with a SOHC you can still use your DX cable its just alot longer. If your going with a B series you can get a B series cable or a bracket and still use the D series cable. SOHC are all the same length from the end to where it goes into the bracket B series has a few xtra inchs so need to mod it

I believe the end that hooks to the accelerator pedal is different between the DX and Si. I could be wrong and it may only be if your car has an auto tranny or cruise control. I swapped my pedal assemby for an auto to manual conversion and the cable ends were different. I ended up swapping the accerator pedal from the two pedal assemblies to make it work. I still have the long cable in there.

Never known of the cables attaching to the pedal being any different. I have used the DX cables and B series all on the same pedal.
