throttle cable question.

[deaf_rattle]

looking into throttle cable set ups at the moment.
gone ffim on my 7mgte and want to know what people do when switching to a ffim.
The stock set up pulls from the front, where as i want to pull from behind.




any comments/info would be most helpful.

cheers

What did Suze do?

[deaf_rattle]

she ran a different throttle body. 1uz iirc

[Dell'Orto]

Should just be able to swap the throttle wheel around? Unsure as to what you're using

Is there no way you'd change to a 1uz t/b?

Wouldn't it just be easier?

[bluemaumau]

i thought youd be using an aftermarket t/b anyway

[deaf_rattle]

dont need a larger t/b so didnt feel the need to replace it when the stock one will do the job.

Not saying you need it or not - but wouldn't it make life easier and help if you want more powers later on?

[deaf_rattle]

if i want more power later on ill go aftermarket ecu and tune more out of it.
but really anymore power would be a waste of time in this chassis without alot more time and money spent on sorting out the rear end and tyres.

Fine

Don't go for the rear pulling 1UZ t/b what would end up looking clean and simple and spend hours and hours pondering how you're going to get the 7M one to work and then have some fugly setup that ruins your currently great looking engine bay.

I reckon I could figure something out for you, have you got a throttle body assembled? If so I'll have a look next time I'm over, I'm sure there's got to be a relatively easy solution. I assume it needs 2 cables, one to actuate it and then one to the auto?
