180sx front caliper vs stock s13?

OK, so we know the piston diameter is larger on the 180sx front calipers, but (and just 'cause I'm lazy and don't want to take my wheels off right now) is the brake pad the same? I mean, can I buy pads for the s13 240sx and fit them in the calipers from my 180sx clip?

Thanx

I do believe it is Altima pads that you will need for the 180sx calipers
