ok so heres the problem. i did my sr20 redtop swap today and the throttle cable wasnt long enough to go around the back of the valve cover all the way to the throttle body..so we just hooked it up going across the top of the valve cover. looks ugly as hell..anyone else experience this? i have a 90 and thought maybe the dohc motors had longer cables..

I know a few people that did the same thing you did.

anyone know if an S14 throttle cable will work the same as the S13 DOHC one?
