4th Generation more strut bar questions

Ok so I've installed my new strut bar as seen below:


( I need to clean the engine up. I know)


Now the problem that I have is the bar is right on a backet for the throttle body cable. Which is a little to close for my comfort:



Will this cause a problem at all?? Is there away to adjust the backet so it doesn't rub(it might be) or should I get a dreml and trim the backet a bit??

Just remount the bar and sjut twist it a bit so it doesn't rest on their. The ractive strut bars are just generic. I had an Identical one on my ae92..it rubbed the same so i have it kinda sideways lol. Be careful you don't overtighten the botls on that bar though..they are weak as hell lol.
