you can change the TPS-no need to replace the throttle body.you can use one off any sidedraft honda.the only ones you can't use are the downdraft style(cars with the TB facing upward)-they rotate the wrong way(from DPFI EFs,and i beleive the EK downdraft cars also turn the wrong way).

Isn't the tps like wound up inside and thats why Honda doesn't put normal bolts on them so you can remove them? I remember switching a couple TPS sensors and after that there were some idling problems.

the TPS is a simple potentiometer.it has a keyway that locks into the throttle plate. you just have to adjust it once it's installed.

How does this relate to his question? Not at all! Don't replace the TB, just get a new tps!
