Default Type R stut bar in a gsR

When using a skunk2 intake manifold with a gsR throttle body, will the throttle cable interfere with the type R strut bar?

the reason is the gsr throttle cable and bracket will hit the hood, since the skunk 2 manifold sits higher up in the engine bay.

But it'll clear the itr strut bar fine

The skunk2 manifold is in my car now and the throttle cable doesn't hit the JDM hood. As long as it'll clear the itr stut bar. Thanks again

It's the earlier version of skunk2. It never came with the signature plate. They only started to make the plate after seeing all the fake one online. I will post the pics after I install the strut bar. It's on the way.
