I have a 92 civic SI hatch and im putting an ls/vtec setup in it. and i am running a gsr intake manifold. I have an ls throttle cable but i cant figure out how to make a bracket for the cable, i know it has to run underneath the manifold but i dont know how. If any doe sknow how to make the bracket or has pictures that can help me out please IM me. thanx

 

BUMP

 

You dont have a bracket on the manifold? Last time i checked the bracket was bolted on the manifold..

If you dont have one why dont you just buy one from somewhere.. It sure beats making one that can fail..

 

You could try looking into a different cable or i THINK you can use one hole on
the ls bracket to temp. fix it on there ......

the LS cable and gsr cables are differnt and dont line up to the same brackets...

I think he's asking about making a bracket like he doesn't have one to begin with..

If he has a bracket and the cable isnt reaching the TB then he can probably do what you said and move it closer to the TB and use one screw only. I've seen that done before lol.. NYC has its share of backyard mechanics..

EDIT: I know what hes talkin about now.. The "normal" shaped manifolds (b16, ls, type r) have the cable coming across the top with the bracket somewhere on the top.. But the GSR manifold has this bracket somewhere right near the TB so the cable is suppose to loop around.. Basically pulling the TB left (looking from the front of the car) as opposed to the LS design that pulls right...

Anyway you need to get that bracket if you dont have it..

 

Thanks for all your imput i has proved really helpful. i guess i will try to find a GSR bracket and make it fit with the LS cable

 

if the cable is too long, try a 10 dollar bracket from jdmshit.com. black powdercoated piece, and worked with my b16 in an eg.
