The whole diff or just the guts with your r&p?

the whole diff no since its a short nose and our cars are long nose diffs. the guts yes as long as its a R200

Isn't it just the spider assembly and ring gear, wouldn't the pinion be to short.. aka short nose vs long nose r200

Yea; the pinion to short. And I don't think he could use the ring either as it would have to be the exact same ratio and it not gonna be. So yep, just the inner section of the diff
