Rubber stopper for throttle- does it allow WOT
I was vacuuming my car when I noticed the rubber stopper plate behind the gas peddle. Does it prevent the throttle from fully opening? So, when the throttle is fully depressed the TB synchronized to be fully open? Anyone ever remove it to see what happens.

#1 it doesn't prevent you from going WOT
#2 don't remove it.. it will f'ck up your car and eventually break your throttle cable

I removed mine a long time ago and have had no problems. I dont see how it could mess up the cable. It only allows you to put the pedal an inch or two closer to the floor

chances are it won't break on you.. probably some little old lady who buys your car after you.. my advice is to put it back

How to fix Rubber Stopper
I was racing with another Maxima not too long ago and the rubber stopper broke and came off. Now I notice a really annoying 1/4" of play on the accelerator before the throttle actually opens/cable tightens. I have put it back in place several times. It has finally been chewed to hell from wear and tear and no longer stays in place. I cannot tighten the cable any more to compensate the missing stopper. How is this rubber stopper installed ? Can this be substituted with another type of rubber washer ? Thanks.

IDEA:
Why doesn't somebody take off their intake piping, turn the car on but don't start it. Depress the accellerator to the floor and see how far the stepper motor opens the butterfly. Do this with the stopper on and off and post the results.
Your fellow org members await the findings..........
