Dude I don't want to pour cold water on your ideas but I suggest going for a drive in a 20v car that weighs 1050KG or so before you make a decision, preferably "beside" one with a GZE in it. A MR2 with a 20v is not a really significantly faster car than a stocker. The MR2 is about 1050KG, and far from quick.
I really doubt that the 20v is putting out much more than 150hp when new, which is only about 10 hp more than a fresh 18-RG with a hell of a lot less torque. I know the specs say the 20v is making more than this but I find it hard to believe, when comparing cars running it with cars making the same quoted power. I wouldn't like to have a 20v engine in a celica when it has so much available engine bay to house any of the better Toyota engines.
