Just a note, there are no lifters in the 2uz motor. It's overhead cam.
Pretty sure you can swap in a VVTi motor without doing the ECU and engine harness since you already have a 2uz. I'm running just the VVT intake manifold and throttle body on my 2003 non-VVT engine without issues. The VVT manifold has variable length intake tracts that are vacuum controlled, not ECU controlled. The VVT motors do have air pumps but there are several threads covering eliminating those I think.
