However, the feel of the engine response will greatly differ compared to a JZ/RB, or LS as they will be more responsive and direct.

Compared to an LS, maybe. Compared to a JZ/RB, i dont think so. An engine can rev stupidly fast when it has light internals. JZ/RB are really strong, they have quite some potential (rb25/26, the RB20 is a joke), they make some great noises, but engine response ? No, not really. There are ways to get better, but the engine response stock is not great at all. Their internals are heavy, the transmission is heavy, and the clutch fan does not help either. When they are stock, they feel like jet engines; it feels like a giant hand pushes the car forward, gently at first then stronger.
Nothing like a modified engine feels, really. This would much more feel like the giant hand slaps your face and your back every time you touch that throttle, which is the very definition of "fun"
