s50 swap into e30 m3. throttle cable

[m3j0n]

since there are so many cables in questions, I just wanted to get a solid answer before I place the wrong order.

From what I read, the best throttle cable is from a 90-92 525i with a m50. That would be p/n: 35411160609, right?

The E34 throttle cable is necessary if you are using the iX booster. Otherwise, an E36 cable is fine. You can kludge an M20 cable if you need to.

thanks nick, I don't have my stock e30 m3, nor the e36 cable, so I have to order one. I figured I would order the cheapest, and most-correct cable. I guess Ill just go with the part number I posted - is that the correct part number? I am using a modified audi brake booster that is FAR smaller in diameter

E34 M50 throttle cable is the best one to use. Nothing else is better. Its under $30 shipped...
