I just did the throttle cable on my '02 and it was a fantastic change. So much better feel!
Great tip

When the factory assembles the car the throttle cable is loose (has a play). If those bolts come loose from milage it would be very little change. The bolts lock eachother into place so they should not come loose.
It's just like brake and shifter cables on a bicycle. After some time, adjustments need to be made to compensate for the stretch.

Whatever you adjusted wasn't your throttle cable. MY06 have drive by wire.
