I believe those cars also came with the vg30e in the US. That might only have been the later years, though. I did a little bit of research, and you can find info on them, it's out there. It's just hard to find. Unfortunately all of my bookmarks from the last month were lost when my c: partition was corrupted by an unfriendly fsb multiplier, so I can't give you any links.
Another swap is the fj20et.
