3uz would be a waste and has a lot more electronics to deal with. The stock "old", as you call it, 1uz was the basis for Toyota's Indy purposes and has a nice aftermarket following. The f20 with trans weighs as much as the 1uz with a w series and lacks torque. Ask Will Parsons why he turbo'd his f20... The 1uz is reliable and even at 230whp, it's double the stock power the car came with. Also it makes on average 250-265 torque depending on what year 1uz it is. I spent almost a year researching different swaps before deciding on mine. I'm a V8 guy, plain and simple. And there are plenty of guys making 400+ whp na out of these with itbs and a standalone. And countless boosted cars making well over 600! An F20 is harder to find parts for and the transmissions are expensive(at least here in the U.S.). I'd say go 1uz, but that's my biased opinion.

My screen name on 86garage is McKenney as well btw.
