Not knowing any of the expense involved of course.
Agreed, the TTMRA is a good work around until you start throwing in type ratings/IPC’s on the cASa system. If you try to do it via the casa system and TTMRA it across then you will likely be chasing your tail.
Unfortunately the cheapest way is likely to find the cheapest IFR twin in NZ and do the relevant missing pieces in that.
