I'm going to be pretty mad if this isn't what you're implying it is.

Nope, NA6 chassis, currently 200whp boosted, going to 200whpish n/a Honda K24 engine.
With potential for 500whp later.

ƒü¢k you dann 
What are you doing re subframe/steering geometry? Butchering a stock one or going down the v8 roadster path? You know the rack mounts are different between RH and LH drive right? The build on k20a.org looks like the butchered sump/bottom of the engine could be really freaking close to the steering rack column. Which is a perfect segway...
What are you going to do re the oil system? I have noticed on magic's build that it looks like they machined a new inlet manifold for the oil pump so they could make the plumbing to the pick up fit. They're also using a different oil pump from a type s (assume integra/k20a*) as the k24 one has balance shafts.
What k24 are you using? A k24a3 from an adm accord euro?
Is the plan to get a flywheel, adapter plates etc from Magic in the states? Or are you looking to get stuff made here?
This could be the catalyst...

Sub-fking-scribed. +1 to everything Plohl said plus hurry the fk up and make sure you price in shipping of two sets of parts to QLD.
Personally I'm just as interested in a k20 to say in 2l classes.

Presumably relatively straight forward to get legal too?

Legalities are likely to be the easiest part.

The swaps in the states are retaining the mx5 box so as to retain the ppf etc.
