Here's a few from some d24 nonturbo engines, the one with the smallest top is a very early version; the other too are nearly identical to each other, only slightly different. LMK if you need measurements.
Nice pictures showing the differences in versions. Thanks for the effort. The way the stock cable comes through the firewall at an angle, to get around the brake booster, it was nearly impossible to route the cable far enough to the passenger side to connect to the IP.

I haven't been getting notices on thread replies so am a little tardy in replying.

I found a LONG throttle cable from an early 1990's Datsun or Nissan which worked after hours of fitting, modifying and making brackets. It loops almost to the grille then back to the IP. I'll get a photo this weekend.
