Your learning curve depends on you, not the tech you're learning. If you actually do 
"know JSP" as you claim, it could be short, but a lot of people mean something different 
by such a phrase than actual knowledge.

Is there scriptlet in your JSPs? Do you use EL? How would you ensure that a variable like 
"#{foo}" comes from page scope?

It also depends on your requirements. *How* do you plan to change the look and feel? 
*What* new features will you add? Why isn't JSP good enough to support those?

If you haven't planned out specifically what you're going to do, no wonder you're confused. 
Clarity stems from how well you envision your goals. It may well be that you don't even 
need to use new tech, nor risk the project for your desire to learn on your client's dime.

That said, JSF is a marvelous way to make snappy, slick Web apps, How's your XML? JSF 
works well with JSP, but the modern and better way is with XHTML.

Show us how well you "know" JSP and I'll give you a better read on your likely learning curves.

And JavaFX? Huh? Why did you include that in the mix? 

While we're asking questions, how much research did you do into the technologies you 
mentioned before you posted here?
