Anybody tried fitting a throttle body from 190 BHP Celica/Corolla to a 111R elise/ exige & were there any problems.

Thanks

My car is 2004 which is cable operated. Does that cause a problem?

Thanks James, I have been able to locate a second hand one for £45 from a 2005 Corolla T Sport so I can take a chance & try it. A new one from Lotus is £1015!!!

Just to update you on Toyota Throttle body. Tried one from a Corolla T sport & it is identical but the part that takes the cable was slightly shorter meaning back to the drawing board.
Anyone know a good place to source a second hand one direct from a 111R

Thanks Frank, swapped the part that carries the cable and it fitted fine. However my idle speed problem is actually worse now, about 1200rpm so I will swap back to my original and live with the 1000rpm. Any ideas on how to get rid of the MIL light...code points to the throttle body and high idle. Do not want the hassle of trying another throttle body.
