From your post I assume you're into drifting, and that you're broke/on a tight budget. With those parameters, instead of messing around with a 300z Viscous LSD, you should look into getting your stock open differential welded like !Zar! said. Luke does an excellent job and the price on his "Weld Loc'd V4" should be in your range:

Install is relatively simple if you're a habitual/weekend wrencher... Take a look at the link in my signature for a Kaaz LSD Install. A welded diff install is almost identical.

On the other hand, if you have a $500 to $1000-ish budget for a brand new diff, you should look into getting a Kaaz, Nismo, Cusco brand 1.5 or 2 way LSD. If you're not sure what the difference is between "V LSD", "1.5 way" and a "2 way" then you still have some important homework to do before you make ANY decision... BTW just do a search for "weld" and you'll find tons of "debate" threads on here regarding HLSD, VLSD, 1-way, 1.5 way, 2 way and welded diffs.
