How to KA throttle cable in a 510

[Guest kamakazi620]

So i'm KAing my 510 goon,and i found that a 240sx 1989 to be exact works very well.Heres what i did..............................

factory throttle rod

240sx throttle rod/pedal

here they are side by side

I bolted the 240sx in with one bolt/screw it seems to hold fine

next is the 240sx cable

Notice the ears on the bracket,I trimmed them off to fit it flush against the firewall

and i ran the cable threw the factory throttle hole in the fire wall,make sure and remove the grommet

I will later drill 2 holes to mount the cable assembly to,and use 2 small bolts with 4 nuts to make studs to bolt it to

here is the pedal assembly in the car

at full throttle

you will also have to bend the rod back about an inch with a box end wrench or "dogbone" wrench to take up the slack.

I am glad. I sold a cable to a guy and he need it to experiment on his 510. Glad he can use if he figures it out.

y not just weld 2 bolt on. drill holes for them like u plan on and put a nut on them to hold tight, then put 2 lil tacks on the head of each bolt. remove nuts and u have studs that u can mount it flush on

 

and yes i qouted all the pics just for the ollz (no you didnt)
