No air coming through induction 96 stagea

Hey guys I don't know if my account is the same as the one I introduced myself on cause I think it logged in through Facebook... anyway wondering if anyone can help shed some light. 

I don't know much about cars and by much I mean f all really. 

But my Stagea (96 RS) isn't sucking air through the intake. Upon having a look I see the sensor thing in/on there. It looked fine, I checked the connection and it was clean. 

I don't even want to drive it to the mechanics cause when i was driving it and it started to happen it didn't feel good and no air is not good. 

I searched on here and saw about air mass sensor? Is this it? Broken? 

 

Thanks and here is a pic of her

Trace the piping from the throttle body/intake manifold all the way along the intercooler piping and see if a hose has come loose or split. It would be making noise somewhere along that sucking in air from before the air filter.

Without air it won't run. At idle it won't suck much air - have you tried winding the throttle up? If its not coming in the front intake its coming in somewhere else so just check all the way back to the turbo intake.

hey guys sorry I haven't replied it turned out to be the turbo. So now I need a new one. Anyone got or know whom may have one? Also if going to buy a new turbo... which ones would you guys recommend? I don't have a lot of cash ATM. Seen some on eBay etc but a bit unsure

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
