Ok first lets stick with hondas yes you can put a 2008 GTR if they make the new Skyline into a civic you just need $$,$$$ and just because its a GTR motor doesnt mean its fast. Yes the CTR motor should fit, cost oh boy $5000-7000 for the motor alone

First of the GT-R motor is rear wheel drive. You would be looking at $20,000+ to make it work. The Civic type-r motor is from Japan only and cost upwatrds of $6,000 just for the motor. the complete swap including labor would be about $10,000. Remember you will need the tranny, mounts, axles, shift linkages, ECU, and other various parts too.
