thats what i was thinking but i dont know enough about them to replace it my self but if i would buy a new one i would buy the chrome one off ebay for 500 bucks

[DTP]

I think there would be a tut somewhere on this site... Can't be too hard.

Lemme look around

[Galantman03]

did the TB break or the manifold broke where the TBm mounts? there is now way in this place that it takes 8 hrs to weld a TB mounting plate to the manifold, even included prep time! which if its a wire feed welder, really isn't any cuz thats what the gas is used for... I say hit up the JY for an outlander IM, and go with a 6g72 tb too :)

[DTP]

I've got the 6G72 TB... I say swap time bro

Here's the outlander tut:

I have one for the stock one from when I did the outlander swap, it's in good condition, I'm letting her go for $130 shipped.

BTW once you have done this a few times it becomes real easy, I followed the "How To" thread that's in here somewhere, and it made it very easy, the number one thing to remember is to take your time.

Apologies to the mods, our fellow here needs this soon, so I just wanted to inform him, I'm actually at work be home in the next 4-5 hrs, there will be a FS thread with all the requirements.

Stock manifolds arent too hard to swap. Hood removal is a neccesity. Took me about 4 hours an i hadnt hardly had any experience at the time.

I'm willing to bet it's pretty easy... Go to the JY and try removing one from a car. I did my TB this past weekend and it was fairly easy.

the throttle body is fine you need to replace the manifold. Just get a replacement manifold.

[deeznutz]

i would go with the factory reinforced one that isuriao has my 4g64 snapped in the same place didn't even know it did till i removed the intake for some reason dont even know how the car never stalled or ran funny, weird...

[00 galant es tdip]

mine wont even stay started it starets up and i gotta keep give it gas then it dies if i lay off

[00 galant es tdip]

can some one search for a tut to change the IM i tryed searching and i cant ever to get it to work

[The_fresh_Galant]

You all are gonna say im crazy but when mine broke. I lined the break-off together an stuck a heavy-duty shop rag between the intake pipe an the battery to hold the broken peices together...Lasted for a week or two. till i got another.

[00 galant es tdip]

im not posting another thread but yet again i have went threw another intake manifold cracked in the same spot and i also made a bracket for my sri im just sixk over this car i love it then i hate it

[oakrdrs187]

You replace your manifold and in less than 2 weeks it broke?

Time for Outlander Swap, and motor mounts. Hopefully your B/S Belt didn't go and you're getting all these vibrations that are taking a toll on your manifold.

Stop wasting your time with the OEM Galant IM, & get the Outlander IM. My IM broke in the exact same spot, I always knew when it did crack I was just gonna get the Outlander's so I wouldnt end up wasting my time & money like you have. Search around for one locally, 2003 Mitsu Outlander Intake manifold, from a Non-MIVEC engine. Make sure you buy it complete with Throttle Body, sensors, EGR, tubing, & if you can find it the Throttle cable. (Galant cable is longer than Outlander's, so TB Plate wont open completely with mismatch) I had to end up buying my cable from the dealer, was like $30 or something. Also the 6G72 and Outlander TB are both 60mm, so no need in wasting time swapping that. If you want to go bigger go for the 6G74's from the Diamante. It's 65mm in diameter. GL.

^This, def check ur mounts & change your timing belt if you havent already & have high mileage; it can cause vibration when worn from what Ive heard. While youre down there might as well change your accessory belts and water pump as well if you havent already too, cheaper in the long run.

yes its been two weekls my buddy told me to check my motor mounts the belts have been replaced 1000 miles ago and at the moment im just jv welding it till i can save the money up to either go to the outlander mani or just swap out and put a oem mani and make some kind of frankisteined bracket together to make less vibration
