Short throttle cable on dc2r

[IEVAQ8]

u kill me man...
u worri bout the smallest silliest things....lol

if the throttle cable having a 180 degree bend in it was no good, u think they would leave it in the EK CXI, GLI, VTI'R & Type R???

just because its in a different cosmetic shell, they concept, design and physical work it does is the same...

the dc2r had to be a lil different so they made it 4kms long to look fancy...lol

All the other cars have the cable entering from the other side. It's the type r manifold design that made them make it enter from the other side. No oem honda has the throttle cable bending on such an angle, I'll prob do it anyway just until I get my itb because it looks stupid at the moment

wat u talking out...

every ek civic model has the short throttle cable running along the firewall and a 180 deg turn towards the throttle body...

all ek civic's regardless of engine run a high mount type r style inlet manifold...

Vtir doesn't. There's no way honda did it just to be fancy on the type r, add me on fb Tom

vtir is completely different manifold design, hence the different throttle cable...

the ek throttle cable u wanna use and the way u wanna use it, Is the same as the way it is used factory on any given EK...

I dnt have face book

Oem ek run it along the firewall, I'm talking about how people run it under the manifold runners

[IEVAQ8]

y run it under the manifold for???
the fuel filter bracket has a provision for it like on the ek...
it will look OEM

thats run above the runners and bent well beyond the how the oem cable is bent, ran for about 2 years like that no problems.

Well to be honest I never considered the firewall option lol, all the ones I've seen are going under, but the firewall is a much better option. If you guys read my first post properly you would have seen I said under the intake manifold, which would result in a really sharp bend in the cable, much more so than the oem firewall route. Is ek4 the only cable I can use? Anybody got one for sale?

[crobaa]

Tbm - b series is sharper angle that that, the cable mounting brack on the im is lower down and on a sharper angle

I might have a spare cable ....

sms me in the morning and ill check
