Anything can fit in anything with enough effort.
If you mean will it bolt in as is, the answer is no.

Doesn't the R200 come out of IRS Nissans like the Skyline and 200SX? If so, you've got buckleys of making it fit in a live-axle Celica!

Yah, r200 is the nissan diff. No it won't fit in 'easily' - will need new mounts, new driveshafts, etc. etc.
If yours is an ra65 with IRS, then maybe an ma61 LSD is the way to go, or if yours is live axle, then I'm gonna suggest the r31 skyline rear once again.

Most RA65's come with the same F series diff as the MA61 Supra, except it's an open centre. That means a Supra LSD is a direct swap. If you have an RA65 with the T series diff it's a bit harder - you have to swap the whole rear subframe. Still not too hard though.
However if you have the earlier RA60 with the live axle, a Supra diff will not fit at all. A Sprinter LSD will bolt in, but they're very rare these days so probably not such a good option. Otherwise you could get a full race diff (eg Quaife at approx $3k) or you could do a full rear end swap (eg Hilux or Skyline as suggested above).

id go a hilux or hiace diff for ease
but if i was you swap in a whole subframe IRS out of a ma61 supra as Norbie suggested, this isnt really hard to do, ive done it before, theres a bit of welding and of course drilling and making your own threads, half a days work if you are a hard worker, get somebody to help you as diffs are fucking heavy
cheers wayne
