Great video, you jammy bastids, I'm going to make it my goal to get to Mugen and Honda in the next couple of years.

I would really like to see a comparison video between this and the FD2 Mugen RR...

Im pretty sure the FD2 chassis and suspension would still embarass this FN2.

Good video though! smile Ive been to that puppy shop and its not really a pretty sight! Dogs shouldnt be in little boxes like that!

Other than that - I miss Japan! What a place frown

Good Video lads, very nicely done, clearly been watching too much Top Gear with all the arty setups ;-)

Civic sounds like box of angry hornets on acid- excellent.

I'd like to see a comparison between both of these and the new focus RS, It's easy to cream over this cos its Mugenthumbup but the FD2 in white does it for me hard, and the power of the RS focus coupled with the Revoknuckle sounds like it's gonna fly,

Would like to see how all three perform and compare round the Top Gear track.

Excellent video! Very entertaining! Not at all suprised to see every Mugen employee in the plant wearing the same white overalls! The japanese really do show the world a different side of engineering..

Top work! More like this with other tests please!!

It was a shame that after being excited about the possibility of going around Twin Ring Motegi, he ended up going around Motegi car park.

Good video, shame you did not spend more time showing the car, I think I got to see more of Tokyo then the Civic? There was one funny part in the video where the winning contestant was explaining to the engineers how the civic handles on track, and you can clearly see his face thinking to himself, why is this man telling us how the car handles, we know?

Amazing video, but then again I am a Japanaphile. Never liked that shape but as someone else said it did sound impressive.

I wish I had visited the Mugen factory while I was in Tokyo.

A well produced video, you should do more.
