Balance Shafts were REMOVED
Balance Shafts were NOT REMOVED
This is a research item and I need every owner to answer this question, ONLY if you are an owner of the vehicle or know in detail of the vehicle.
What is the question? haha
Check it againOriginally Posted by mrg7243
My vote was x2 because I had 2 4g64's
my manifold cracked with a stock internals motor and mounts. its such a shitty design. you should check out the bracket that the eclipses have. they brace the tb with the connection to the head. i dont know why the galant didnt come with it.

Would a crack bring about a noticeable difference in performance, noise, etc? I never had a problem with my 4G64 manifold, so if the car doesn't noticeably act different with the cracked manifold, I coulda had one and never knew.

yeah they had that bracket and a reinforced manifold also
both my 4g64's showed no symptoms just fell off one day
^^Hmm, I can't answer accurately then, I had no problems with mine. I thought I read that the 8Gb's had a reinforced IM, I could be wrong though.

yes they did come reinforced in the 8gb
ive had a galant and a eclipse manifold crack, of course due to bad motor mounts. First time i only replaced front and back mounts. Istill need to replace all four before this one goes bad.
Slowly but its getting done

Mine cracked due to a worn rear roll stopper plus the idiot mechanic got the balance shaft timing off causing shit loads of vibration.
^This! Thats what happened with mine...

my dumbass mechanic put in the timing belt wrong and caused a lot of vibration. and lead up to my manifold cracking
My roommate's bone stock 8g had an IM crack.
No significant warning, noticed vibration/shuddering upon lifting off the gas about 1/2 mile before the car stopped running, bam cracked IM.
Come to think of it both my 4g64 manifolds went shortly after I went 5speed
Not that this has anything to do with the intake manifold cracking. But a popular mod for the 4g63 engines is to remove the balance shaft all together. GSX runs fine xD
