I think you might have clearance problems if you are using the standard over the top of the engine NA inlet.

I'm sure it's been done, haven't seen one myself though.

 

Curious... Why arent you going turbo?

Are you right hand drive?

 

Here are some pictures of a 2JZGE in a right hand drive. Not mine btw:

I figure it should weigh similar, but slightly more due to the DOHC. With the same accesories, you should be close to the same weight. Not really worth worrying about.

Just because a car is turbo, doesn't mean it's a straight line performer only...Take the skyline, it's one of the best track cars ever..and it's turbo......
