2JZ are not cheap here in the UK, certainly not as cheap as the B58, which comes as a surprise. The fact the B58 makes good power and is modern so should be quite a decent engine to run. Certainly is decent fun in the M240 so a lighter more able chassis seems an obvious choice. I quite like the i6 idea and bar the 2JZ and also expensive RB25/26 the options are limited.
UZ is one that I've been tempted by but we don't get many V8 Toyotas/Lexus here so again, not that cheap and need work to make similar power. LS just isn't an option here, we don't get any of the models that use them so you either have to get one imported or from an imported car, so guess what, they aren't cheap.
