Cool Tightening Throttle Cable

This topic has been going over and over in General discussion places, but I just thought I would post this in case nobody has done it. I just tightened mine today and the notice was amazing. My cable was unbelievably loose. I would say this is the best free mod ever and now downshifting and rev-matching feels like a piece of cake. Anyways, in case you haven't done it yet, go do it! Even new ones can be quite loose. Just don't over tighten.

Maybe b/c everyone is too busy trying to find the original post! I'll help out the lazy butts by posting the link here:

Tightened mine, made a difference for sure. Like you said Vik, it was really loose on my 04 as well.

It's definately something I've done with all my cars, except for my 02 Sentra but that's another story. = )

Really, you didn't tighten the throttle cable on the Sentra? I know I did, what's wrong with you? It gave me way more horsepower!!
