Thumbs up Echo HB 2JZ GTE engine swap?

I'd like to make my 04 Echo HB pretty fast.
Would a 2JZ GTE supra engine fit? FWD, RWD?
Would a 6 speed manual fit?

May be RWD but you need to cut and make a new chassis to put a differential, the tranny and the engine. Is too long for FWD and for RWD too. Is more economic a 2ZZ-GE, if you want put a turbo on it(2ZZ-GTE) or 3S-GTE swap.

Is not impossible, but is better for a speedway project, non a street project. If I had money I want to build an Echo RWD but with a 4cyl, preferable a 2ZZ Turbo engine because here in Puerto Rico is the only powerful Toyota engine is not in a speedway project jet. We have 2JZ-GTE, 3S-GTE, 3TC-TE, 4A-GTE, but jet a 2ZZ-GTE.
