I don't want to drift really, but the S14 stock LSD sucks compared to the BMW 3 series with LSDs I've had.

How much should I pay for a used/recond LSD? I'd prefer a clutch-type instead of viscous, because the BMW one worked so well. But open to suggestions.

it sounds like you might be better off using a helical diff from the S15? usually most after market diffs for the S14 are quite a lot harsher than standard BMW. for example a E30 M3 diff has 25% locking potential (afaik) and a nismo diff has 86% locking potential on throttle and 63% off. nismo is the least harsh of aftermarket diffs. although if you get a GT pro you can reduce the locking potential and possibly remove plates, but it doesnt seem worth it. second hadn S15 diff is around £300, new nismo is around £800.

Or get an uprated viscous diff for £400.
