[QUOTE="cobrajeff96, post: 1522259, member: 29141"] The sheathing on the adjustable cables creates internal binding and the heat protection is lacking, and over time the stretching of the cable is probably worse than an OEM cable. At least that's what was well known for many years (maybe they got better in more recent years, but I can't be sure because all I ever bought when my car was on cable was MM variants, and now a days my car runs a full hydraulic setup). I bet you could actually run the adjustable cable if you sleeve it to shun the engine/exhaust heat away. But then the question is: why are there three separate adjustment areas when there really only needs to be two? The firewall screw and the quadrant adjustment is all that's needed. Being that the cable has a threaded end with a nut (and on a part that moves a lot during driving) that's just another potential concern to worry about. Just my opinion though. [/QUOTE]
