R180 confusion...

Okay so got the the greatest gift of all from my girlfriend on Christmas which was a nismo 2way lsd. I opened it up and checked it out. Its all there except one thing caught my eye. Its for a r180 housing. I know 240sx's come with a r200 type housing but was wondering if anyone knows if this lsd will fit into the r200 housing?
I did a little research and found out that the r180's are actually from old school 260-280zx's and some other cars. I actually joined their forum trying to ask the same question. Im still waiting for the activation email. Oh wells. Anyways if anyone knows please let me know cause im stummped. Anyways thanks in advance
