I believe it has actually been done before. Well in a sense it has. The one that was previously built was basicly a tube chassis car with a corvette drivetrain that happened to have a civic hatch body on top. Cool for sure and lots of hard work but I dunno if I would consider it a true swap since it didn't utilize any of the original structure of the civic.

He also swapped in the corvette interior, i think he's finally hitting 11's but thants only cause he has no traction

otherwise the swap would probably net 10's out the box.
