The throttle bodies that i bought for my car, one is damaged.
Questions:
1) How do i identify exactly what it is? It's a Gixxer body of some sort, how do i tell which?
2) Where do i find said replacement once i've identified it for cheap? Looking for new parts, since i don't feel like waiting/tracking down used stuff.
Not sure how to identify it. Any numbers on the throttle body?
For locating it new you could try bikebandit.com.
Might be somewhere... I realized i was dumb and moved them up to the garage on Sunday. I won't be able to get back into them until this weekend. ARG.
To make it more convoluted, apparently there's a decently high chance they'll turn out to be Jenvey units.
I have this part number from Factory Pro for the velocity stacks.
VEL-S51-3030
But they don't seem to be made anymore, does this give any clues at all?
They're these, but 30mm instead of 60mm. http://www.amazon.com/Factory-Pro-Tuning-V-Stax-VEL-S51-6060/dp/B000GZOZUA
Gixxer 1000 Keihin injectors.
Here's some pictures if someone might recognize the linkage on the bodies themselves.
Oneidasuzuki.com for inexpensive oem parts.
Didn't you get those from the KL miata? The website says they are GSXR-1000 throttle bodies:

You might be better off getting it welded than trying to find a new one.
What is the ID on those? I broke up a set of GSXR TB's for a project and have one or two left. They might be 600 pieces though.

Yep, i just found that original site again today, and arrived at the same conclusion.
Any idea if all Gixxer 1000 bodies are the same?

They're definitely 1000s. If you've got one or two and they are 1000s, let me know what you want for them. 
2001-2004 are close to same 05 and up have extra injector set up. Suz like to do things in 2 year runs for the most part. so 01-02 are same 03-04 are same etc. I forget what is different on the 03-04's but i know it's so minor they can be swapped on the bikes so you should be good. Looks to be above the throttle plate. JB weld it on and go, while you hunt a replacement
Ok cool these are single injectors, so i'm looking for 01-04 i suppose. Thanks! 
Those, upon closer inspection do not appear to be the type I have. Mine are earlier and are 38mm bore so probably 600 pieces
$44 for four + $17 shipping, that's probably about as cheap as you are going to find any.
You can sell the remaining three to someone to use on a Geo Metro 
(now I'm back on Craigslist looking at Metros 
).
Ooooo thanks Evan! I'll pick those up tomorrow.
Now... who wants to stand over my shoulder while i attempt to swap a body to make sure i don't mess it all up?
I could but no guarantees on not messing it up
I'm not entirely sure those match exactly what i've got, the more i look at 'em anyways.
I'll probably buy them anyways, then see if i can get the post welded back on.
Then i'll make to re-make that strap, the one that's on there is too short which is why it ripped out.
Looks like that ebay set is missing the injectors.

No biggie, i have a full set already.
Thanks for reminding me, though... i forgot to buy them. Fixed!
This thread is relevant to my interests.
I did forget to use my $5 ebay coupon on them, though.
The answer, of course, is to buy a GSX-R1000. The end result will be more fun and headache free.

Don't want one, i want an NT650.
I'm trying to create a 9000rpm+ screaming V6 in the meantime, though. 
nt650s are cool
buuuuuuuuuuuut that's about it. 
There's a nice NT650 on ebay right now...
