First result from the google search "na throttle cable on turbo site:rx7club.com"

That is what I did. But if you don't want to start taking things apart you should use the TII throttle cable. because that is a bolt in affair.

they all attach to the body the same way with that compression type "square fitting" to go in the hole at the firewall.
The N/A to TII Tb mod is a good way to go as it shortens cable.(Did that,easy,Peasey..)
One of the Series of cables is longer on the TII,Not sure which.Never got that far into it.

If in doubt just use the cable intended for the engine and that solves things right there.

if not using the TMIC a FD throttle cable works best, and is cheap.

You wont be left with a extra foot of cable looping around your engine compartment either

lol it is an oem mazda part that is an exact fit.

good luck messing with an old throttle cable that pulls like **** and is 20 ft long

i saw it in the j yard and the one i grabbed was brand new, now my engine bay looks better and the throttle response is better due to the new, shorter cable


i would say i did it right, and not wrong

If doing it right is retro-fitting a cable that doesnt belong on the car, then congrats, you did it right.

That $70 you spent on a throttle cable could have been used for something cool on your turbo swap. We've all been there.

So yea an OEM throttle cable of an early Mx3 works great for turbo throttle bodies
