K1 Attack (bad ass custom car)

i dunno if its been posted but the attack is basically a custom built exotic car.

Its a custom built car. You buy the kit and it gets shipped in a big ass box w/ the frame, body panels and misc stuff like suspension and stuff.
You can build it yourself or have a kit car builder build it for you.
You use the entire drive train and other misc parts from a 1990-1993 honda accord and the entire drive train gets mounted on the back of the Attack frame.
As for the engine the H22 seems the be the most common engine used to swap into it. You can imagine what a boosted H22 could do in this 1800 lb car

Actually, I think the highest model of the car is a JDM H22 turbo motor.

Yea you can put pretty much any engine in it that'll fit. I remember back in the day, i think they used s2000's engines some times. For cheaper you could just leave the stock accord engine in it, lol.

Oh and it uses 1990-1993 accord front subframe as a main part and some other parts from the car. Technically it will be titled in the USA as a 90-93 honda accord. Expect to be pulled over alot

Yea i remember reading somewhere bout the ford engines. They musta changed it up a bit since i looked at it last.

You pretty much buy the kit, they ship it and you find a builder in the US or where ever. I think thats how it works, dont quote me. Their main page is under construction so...


Edit: Seems the best engine is from a prelude, the H22

I don't know why, but the Attack in this picture looks pretty damn good compared to the other pictures.

Yea youd think they'd get some better models. Like the blond in the front, the chick in the passenger seat and the one in the far left are straight but the rest....... The two chicks standing by each door Hell the one standing by the passenger door looks like sad

I'm feeling the chick on the passenger seat and the one to the left sitting on the tire. IMO the chick infront of the grill is not that hot

You can actually buy the kit to make it out of an accord.. at least the last time I looked it up you could.

The attack is like really good sex that you just reminded me that I had. thanks!

Yea theyve got it down pretty nice. The whole thing ships in a giant box w/ all the panels and the frame. You just buy a beater 93 accord, yank the engine and tranny and other stuff and you can bolt it all together in your garage w/o much fabrication or ship it to a builder. I wish the main page was up, you can really get one of these on the road w/ a sh!t engine for 30K i believe.

I wanna say the cheap kit was like $20k or something for just the parts.

Check this out:
