yup, you'll want the yoke from the rb driveshaft (which I believe is the same as the ka) and you'll want the end piece that fits your diff's pinion flange, not all r200's use the same pinion flange

if you have a shaft with the proper pieces at both ends that simply needs shortened, expect about $100 if you have to make one from scratch expect $300-400

Yup to add to this the rb20det yoke is the same as the ka yoke. The rb25det yoke is the same as a z32 yoke.
