new with turbos, Help!

hey everyone. i know everyone's probably tired of repeating turbo instructions but i just got my 95 S14 w/stock Ka and trying to install a donated turbo and donated SMIC. Anybody know what kinda turbo this is btw. I've never dealt with turbos before bc my last few cars were all motor:CRX Si, Ek9, and an N/A Rx7 S5, so i need alot of help, suggestions, step by step insturcutions. if u've got the time to post, i got the time to read and apply. this is what i'm working with.

that there my firend i believe is a 300zx turbo...correct me if im wrong but it looks to be a t3 good for about 220-250 range if tuned properly...get an afc back off timing and run sr injectors and customize your smic and your set...of course you'll need to do alot of in between work as well like find pipeing couplers etc...search other forums and you'll find what you need guaranteed.

i thought this was Z31 too but it also looks like it came off a SR or a RB. i'm alomst positive it's a T3 from a RB i'll look into it and see if i can find some other serial codes on the turbo.

wouldn't buying a complete SR be almost the same as installing this turbo on my stock KA?

You've got to consider that a reliable sr20 is usually around $2500... plus your going to need things like the radiator and motor mounts, and if you dont do it yourself you've got to pay for your installation. Chances are that this KA-T will be a good bit cheaper.

the turbo reads "16V 7 Nissan Motors" and the elbow or downpipe read ASN79.

again this is a donated turbo that i got for free

can anyone guess what kinda turbo this is? what car it came from?
