I am pretty sure the path uses a larger ring gear,a nd the 350Z is reported to be the ever so common R200 which has been in Z's since the 70's

I honestly have no idea what diff is in the pathy, might want to ask around in the pathy or titan areas, I found 2 OEM Nissan LSD's listed at a discount dealer for $1000-1100, you might want to contact a few of our sponsoring dealerships, looks like it's a clutch type btw, and if you were to put a viscous in you'd have to have new shafts made due to the way the shafts engage a viscous unit

or looks for a LSD equipped model at junkyards, didn't the SE's come stock with LSD? if not I'm sure it was an option on the SE and standard on the LE

also keep in mind that even if it is the same as the Z33 and even if it's got the same ratio, you're gonna want to keep your stock ring gear, ring and pinion gears should be kept together as a set, and of course you'll have to adjust for proper backlash once any swap is done
