:) Does any one know where I could get a custom throttle cable made in perth, for a Holden 5L efi in a Gq patrol.
Any help would be great

What about the one from the 5.0 lt, I think Holden might use the same size fitting for the pedal, not sure though, when putting the VX Ecotec in I used the cable that was on it, all i had to do was take out the pedal, stick it in the vice and bend the top section out a bit to make the distance right, the pedal moved halfway before it would pull the cable, now it's spot on,

Failing that try a motorbike shop.
