there has been a few toyota to commodore conversions over the years, the one that I remeber best was a green VL? with a 1JZ with a bigger turbo.
As mentioned commonwhores are heavy but not significantly more than a cressida or supra. Id go a 2JZGTE or a 1UZFE perhaps with a turbo added later. Either engine will give you plenty of power and can easily be improved with carefull selection of turbos and ancillaries.
2J front cuts can be had from under $3K these days and 1UZ's are about the same if not cheaper.
realistically you could sell the car and buy a newer, comfier, faster better designed car easily for the money youd be spending. Personally I think you cant beat new technology these days and the only reason id play around with an older car is if it was going to be a thrash machine for offroad or rough events.
