300zx Garrett T25 Turbo on the KA? Good idea

[240dx]

wondering if I can put a t25 turbo from a stock 300zx on my s14 KA? Its in excellent condition and no shaft play. Is this possible and if so is it a good idea or no?

I think that turbo is way too small for the ka. Check the KA-T section, i'm pretty sure this was just mentioned in a thread there.

you can. but it's too small and won't yield great power.

Im pretty sure the t25 would run out of breath @3000prms

i disagree, if your looking to boost a stock ka with good compression and just have a basic ka-t swap, I would say go for it.

I think Razi has a t25 setup and the turbo and other basic management setup can get HP numbers in the low 200 range. For a DD ka-t setup, thats pretty good and very reliable. But if you want to see numbers above 250hp, you would need a bigger turbo and a lot of other supporting modifications.

IIRC, the 300zx t25 and the Sr's t25 are different, SR's being bigger.

Razi is running an s15 t28 which flows more than the SR t25, and a heck of a lot more than the 300zx's t25.
