If you take the bracket off the intake manifold will the cable fit without it? Mine wasn't long enough to work with the bracket in the stock place, so I made an adapter to space it out with a small piece of titanium and powder coated it black. It worked just fine, then.

Both cables from ka24e and de should work for SR without removing or modifying anything, it did for me.

This is the best pic I have of that.I dunno what you're referring to about the bracket. Like I said before, when I did it it worked fine without any extra work.

Mine is doing the same thing. with the cable all the way released the throttle plate is still open. I'm gonna fab a bracket but I've seen other people's cables fit with no catches. WTF?
