Two problems with the late model gated shifter from the US. Yes it will work however you wont be able to re-use the plastic surround as the handbrake curve is on the other side. Secondly and the main reason why i havent done it yet is the that gear selector pattern is on the wrong side.
As UCF20 gated shifter could be bought brand new, i expect it to be stupidly expensive (guess $2000+) otherwise you will have to look out for one going at a wreck or ebay. Best chance is looking in NZ as the car will be a heap cheaper than here and therefore more likely that there will be wrecks and parts.
Personally im waiting for someone to use a JZX100 gated shifter. Have never heard of anyone using it and interested to see how it goes. Once i know it will work ill be doing it right away on mine.
