There was a video but i can't find it now... maybe on youtube. If i'm not mistaken they used a volkswagen turbo diesel.
Found it: Video

It seems to cost arround 35-50 grand to build one of these thing.
Here is one of there forums. www.attackforums.com
You can buy a used one for 50 g's in the for sale section.
I could find a better way to spend 50 g's

My friend is also building a attack. The accord is only used for the engine and tranny and a few other peices. But the accord and prelude rune the same mounts so you can use the preludes H22 with 220 horse stock. My friend is building a turbo h22 with every bolt on you can think of for his K1, and he is planning on 350 horse with low boost.
I am planning on building the GTM next winter/spring. I just love the GM LSx motors.

Take off all the stickers and BS, and the K1 is a semi-exotic, modern looking car. The Accord donorship means nothing because you can retrofit in any powerplane that will fit. Finish, fitment, handling capability, and braking would need to be top notch for me to even consider a kit like this.
The GTM is nice, but I believe the designers just barely missed the mark, aesthetically speaking.

Although I agree to some extent that there are a couple things about the GTM that aren't perfect, it's a hell of a lot better than this...

I've had a dream of fitting a 4-rotor into one of these things for a long time.
