Default Happy Mugen Monday ALL!

Hello community,

Figured we could start a thread to come back to each Monday and enjoy.

Just sharing a picture of the current change on 00-1474

Most definitely! My gift to myself was being able to drive my R again.

I did not like that ****. Did like how it "lowered" the shifter, but hated the feel and the light weight of it.

Not many liked the Mugen formula **** when in production. Since being discontinued everyone wants them, not to mention prices have jumped 500% for new in box

Yeah, I don't understand why the price/demand is high now because the **** is still not very good.

I never liked the look of the mugen formula shift ****, but I haven't driven with it.

The one I've grown to like a lot is the spoon sports duracon ****

Spoon **** is ok, but I always thought the duracon version was too light as well. The aluminum one is heavier, but it's made out of a soft aluminum and tends to scratch really easily.

All of the OE ITR ***** are designed really well. I see no need to replace them with an inferior ****. It's not like the plastic **** Civics of that time period came with.

I used to hate the stock leather **** in my 98, but now I dont think Id change it unless I changed to a taller shifter. I used the Spoon duracon back in the day, it was ok then that little allen screw stripped and it wouldnt stay tight until I super glued it.

I had a mugen jasma 4-1 back in the day, so thats my contribution to this thread

Not mine but looked like

Glad to hear and I really do hope you learn your lesson. I really feel bad if this type r ever got wreck because of someone's carelessness. Stay on the str8 and narrow dude.

Trunk looks a little off but its probably my eyes.

I drive a Mugen ***** **** for the last 10 years and love it, although I use it with a short shifter. I find that it hurts your bare hands a bit and gets really hot, but is amazing to drive with racing gloves on.

My Mugen ****.

I had the Carbing **** and didn't like the shape which is similar to the OG Mugen one.
