Well hello folks I'm in the process of fitting a draw thru turbo set up on my G200 and my accelerator cable wont reach to where my carbi now sits(just behind the radiator next to the battery) . Is there a longer one that may be suitable as a replacement or should I get one made up. Your help would be much appreciated. Thanks

I think the Rodeo ones are longer...
Maybe go to pick-a-part and try find one with the right ends...
You can get them made, they overcharge you tho, how much extra room you need?|

You could try joining 2 gemini ones together? I need to get an end changed on mine and "the speedo shop" quoted me around $60.

I dont think you could join 2 gemini ones together... ther'd be a gap in the sleeve and it wouldn't work.
What kind did you use on the wagon brad?

nah I mean get it done properly, but instead of just changing an end, get both ends cut off (alternate ends obviously) and have them attached together so the cable is twice as long.
I used a gemini pedal with a nissan terrano (I think, perhaps it was skyline?) cable setup. It was easier to attach it to the firewall than the piazza one I was going to use.

hrm, terrano or skyline... i may need a new one myself. It feels like it will just fit, but who knows... will see soon.

Yeap, but I had to modify the firewall and drill holes etc to make it fit. If yours is too short you'd be better off just getting it lengthened or a new one made. Oh and piazza ones are longer to. I think I still have the one burntrubber gave to me if you need it.
