Remember it's Moo-Gen, not Mew-Jen.
Yo when are you going to do, TRD
Do Bugatti bros #Mopowababy
Pronounce it the way its written
Do the Hyundai Azera
The Pop up Headlights song needs to be a shirt
"Mugen is that hot girl that walks into the party" and Honda was like "Chill out guys that's my SON!"
Oh...
Mhm
It’s maam
_trap intensifies_
hol up.
The “MF” naming scheme on some of their engines was for Mugen Formula
Kentaro Honjo thanks it was bothering me that I couldn’t guess what it was
No it’s Morgan Freeman
As an intellectual, I believe it stands for "mother fucking."
It’s actually mugen factory
Nah its for MF DOOM
What you also need to know is Mugen stickers are very important in making your 1998 Civic DX go faster.
Lies again? American Education MLS NFL
So Jeremy Clarkson (60) is your Dad and Lars Ulrich (56) is your brother? I love this show so god damn much
I was thinking James May 🤣
Step-Brother

> Son: Faka ju.

My favourite Mugen is the FN2 Civic Type R 2.2 Mugen. Such a great car!
10:21 MF is stand for "Mugen Formula", that's mean the Engine build for Formula 1.
*plz pinned it. hehehe :)
no it's "Maximum Fart"
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
Mugen fast
I call it "Mother Fucking 308". So your opponents curse your engine because they lost to it.
@@cuy50 I think he's not begging for attention, but because he want more people to know what MF stands for. Your negative mind is so "yikes".
"No Motorcycles, you're here for cars"
*up to speed: Harley Davidson*
@RJW Quick, make an electric bike! That'll fix it
@@joewest343 honestly, their Street 500 rides really similar to a CB500f. Additionally, gotta admit: insta torque is cool.
I’m here for anything with wheels on it that makes me smile.
@@joewest343 harley has made an electric bike a couple years ago its called the live wire
AKA most boring episode
The post malone reference never gets old ... luv it. MF stands for Mugen Factory
No it's Morgan Freeman, didn't you hear the man?
It's for Morgan Freeman's Mugen Factory.

There are now two timelines: pre Post Malone or post Post Malone.
@@FortniteGamer-qx2he this my favorite comment 🤣😂
I love when he talks to himself in the "audience." 😂😂😂
✌🏽
I want your shirt James.
*- "Mo Powa Babeh!"*
Get it on the Donut media shop, dats the donut media's merch.
Up to speed on Alpina? Surprised there still isn’t one
Meatball Man or Bugatti 🙄
Or Alfa Romeo
I think there was one
@@stepans2167 there wasnt
I bet I've seen it. I can even remember the thumbnail

No thats more like spoon
Waited so much for this video! Definitely one of my favorite!!!
POP UP, UP AND DOWN HEADLIGHTS!! pop up up and down headlights...
I'm only level one rosetta stone but Mugen roughly translates to "As the red sun rises, make more power baby" and I think that's really beautiful
😅😅😅
Doesn't it mean infinite
@@erikbarrett85 Didn't get it, huh?
@@eatsmylifeYT woooooooosh
I was blessed enough to own a Honda Integra, DC2, in Italy and a mate of mine, he owned a tuning shop, installed a Mugen ECU with full headers 4-1, along with a coil over kit on my car. The car managed to rev 11k no problem. When the V-TEC kicked in it was a monster.
Great show.
Pretty dumb
@@masteryang890😂 damn RUclips and these kind of answer to perfectly fine comments…
11k? Are you sure about that?
Thanks for the crash course on Mugen ^^
I didn't know THAT much about them, cool cool... cool :)
Pop up and down HEADLIGHTS! I swear dude you crack me up. Touch me to tears sometimes too. I love speed and the folks that made it possible. Stay healthy brah 😚
So everyone's just going to ignore the fact that Pumphrey just told us all that Clarkson is his father?
Dead beat father.... Jeremy Clarkson..... Checks out
its finlo clarkson
Imagine Clarkson telling Pumphrey "I need to go buy cigarettes" and then he buys those cigs and goes to Japan to interview Keiichi Tsuchiya and to test an R32 and never come back to his unrecognized southern son
Frr hahah like is he frr??
Yes
This is everything you need to know to get up to speed on...
Lexus SC
Jaguar XJ
The Nurburgring !!!
they need to make on the nurburgring/nordschleife
ford focus, mercedes sl, mclaren p1, lotus evora, infiniti
And the honda crv
Der Nürburgring
YES, definitely Donut should make a video about nurburgring
Love the pop up and down headlights,gets me every time. Cheers from Aotearoa NZ.
Edit: OK so I was just recommended the Pop up Up and Down headlights official song!!! What a great way to finish my day. Thank you Donut media.
Love your videos and love the format, always great to learn the history behind a model's heritage. One cool thing I would love to see is the history of car manufactures as a company not just a specific vehicle. Keep up the good work and ..."MO POWA BABEH!!" ( even my kids say "Mo Powa Babeh")---- Can I just spam that while driving around?
Beautiful story, I never knew that Honda's son was the OG owner of Mugen.
I agree, I really love all the Japanese companies they dig into. The stories are always really deep and inspiring and donuts added humor just makes them better.
Tsuiso Sim Drifting TRUTH sir!
say whatever u want..but i followed donut media because of this guy right here, James Pumphrey
Ahmad Wajdiy He’s the heart of this channel, I pretty much only watch Up To Speed vids and any other vid of theirs I watch usually has Pumphrey in it to some extent
@@jimmyhopkinsman exactly dudee..hahaha..my first video up to speed ae86 😂😂😂
I only watch up to speed!!
It's gonna be hard staying subbed without him ngl
@@sisamusudroka3000 he's not going anywhere
Man I love your videos bro. Keep it up
Fingers crossed that you guys are making the greatest Corvette video of all time that I will no doubt shed tears over.🤞
We need a up to speed on TRD
And my favourite mugen is the mugen motul civic
Same, I love it in Gran Turismo 5
TRD just made ricer packages lol .... they used to make some air intakes and filtere and i THINK they made a couple superchargers but that was about it lol
@@JDMHaze you forgot to mention they also build cars for toyota in nascar, super gt, formula drift, and whatever off road races toyota does.
Wei Wang ehhhhhh..🤷🏽♂️.... They had potential for the automotive market but gave up, TRD shouldve been what AMG is to Mercedes and what the M division is to BMW
Ian Balfe you’re my hero bro 👌🏼
James, I know I have bugged you since I subbed to make this video so I wish to say THANK YOU!!!!!!!! 😂😂😂
Glad you liked it!
@@stoptexting eat your fucking words
Daniel Dryden tell him daniel, he looks stupid now 😂
Daniel Dryden do you know what a verb tense is, guy?
"Chill out guys, that's my son." HAHAHAHAHA
yoooooo donut I appreciate the ad time on the bottom. I liked the video just for that alone!!
I like FitmentIndustries But Donut Media’s videos don’t feel rushed when it comes to shit like this , it’s night and day. I love you Donuts.
Its a complete dis-service that the "mo powaaaa babey" T-shirt isn't on sale
thank you,the best content.
Wait wait wait, James pumphrey is actually James Clarkson? OMFG
Yes, hopefully his dad gives his son a few cars to have or has him on his show
No Matt LeBlanc is his father
I was thinking James May Jr.
@@MrDrifterdevin not British you blonk
@@mustafakocaman4353 I'm sorry but what is "an English"
To all the boys from donut, and james: The work you do is it’s own thing and we love you for it. The absurdity and research behind it makes you unique. You guys stand out BECAUSE of who you are and how you do shit. I look forward to all your videos on a weekly basis, so do me a favor and never let anybody tell you how to do your job. You’re killing it.
Manuel Gonzalez how can you find this guy not annoying
@@christiananderson4828 I love the information, but he really is obnoxious
I found him annoying the first video I watched. But I kept watching more and now I love him. Donut media you guys pwn. You guys are L337 h4xx0r5.
Just wanna give a major thanks to Donut, I was never into cars besides American Muscle Classics and Trucks. But ever since discovering this channel they've made it so fun to be a car fan, not just the street culture of it all but everything car related.
videos are fun and educational thanks
2:28 James, did you just say your dad’s Jeremy Clarkson?!!
Aisican JonJon no, James May
Ow no@@FullOfMalarky . Has to be Richard Hammond
Has to be crashy Hammond. But good be Clarkson cuz Clarkson seems like the only one of the three to abandon his kid lol
no, it's Vicky Butler Henderson

I really enjoy your motorcycle content, keep it coming plz
8:26 he's right about not being able to get the works stuff. I remember my dad in the 89's riding a cr125 that has all theworks parts from Mugen. It was a thing of beauty.
Ah hell yeah! Mugen is one the best fighting ga-
Oh you mean the car...
I see what you did there
I also guessed that
Lmao
Ah I remember watching videos of literally any character you could think of fighting...to bad I was too dumb to ever get it to work
That nostalgia from the xb360 achievement was golden. Please keep doing that in more episodes. :)
MUGEN CRX
The Mugen Legend Max was my favorite. Closet thing we've gotten to a road going V8 Honda.
Best episode ever FIRE NATION IS IN IT YAAAY
i like that "pewdiepie sells you something shamelessly" music in the background of the ad
What does MF stand for? Ask Samuel Jackson he'll tell you
@@louis-vincentst-pierre3315 racing tractors and farm equipment. That's a good one. Let's keep this going.
@@louis-vincentst-pierre3315 No, I definelty didn't use it in that term.
@@zandaughtry7936 I've had it with these mother fucking snakes on this mother fucking plane
great video!!!!
Had a 2008 mugen si come into my Honda dealership the other day. Super cool car, and drives really well
Hello Donut Media and especially James: This is the best series on youtube love the enthusiasm from James and the humor is top notch keep it up love from Norway :)
James, you are a weirdo yelling about cars. But you're *our* weirdo.
Like in american reunion, "you're our dick"
C O M M U N I S T
and we love our weirdo lol
Communism
*Everybody liked that*
Up to speed on the Acura Vigor Honda’s long lost and only 5 cylinder Engine.
MORE MOTORCYCLE STUFF! love it
I’m flattered you used more than one of my videos in this production.
OldhondasUK thnx for sharing your vids for car fanatics !
You stole those videos form gran turismo cosplay re-enactments
H P did anyone ask you anything? Let the man enjoy his work
😂😂😂
H P Hahahahahah 😂😂😂 oh, how I love the internet
The MF abbreviation on their engines and bikes means Mugen Factory.
Dude, why so anticlimactic, let us have fun 😂
Thank you. Scanned comments just to figure it out.
12:34 Pop up up and down headlights! Love it.
Love the headlights song 🤘🏽🤘🏽😆 dope rewind it to listen to it a few times 😆
Biggest fan from Denmark. I love everyting you need to know to get up to speed, u guys are the best!
there's so much great editing in these videos nd just goes great with the energy from James nd his presentations
*_Mugen = Infinite, love the video by the way!_* (๑╹◡╹)ﾉ"
Ω￦Ω ~￦~
infinite - unlimited same same
I would have translated it to "No limits", guess it depends on the context.
I own a fd2 with a few genuine mugen parts, so proud!
I can feel it in the air.
The time is coming.
An HKS episode is on the horizon. I guess after the TRD one?
I still want a full or a 1h "pop up and down headlight" 😄
L Quasar I made a full version of it on my channel if you want to check it out :) ruclips.net/video/Dm1J42mnKho/видео.html
@@JayWaver thanks didnt know someone already made it! 😄
You guys are awesome. You need to do and show about the Suzuki escudo
“pop up up and down headlights” was litt 🔥
up the speed on suzuki jimny/samurai saga & lada niva please!!
Just to make it clear, the Samurai is the same car as the Suzuki Jimny! But it is what it was called this way in some markets (usually across the America). Hoping for an Up to speed on that also, the Samurai/Jimny it's a 40+ year little car, it's got some story to tell.
André Macêdo i know i know, i got mine's, a samurai long body turbodiesel made in santana (spain) and it got much more names: gypsy, caribian, holden driver.... was branded as chevrolet.....
Up to speed on just suzuki in genral
Whisk it won't be better 3 vids than 1? they got material from jimny saga, vitara/escudo/sidekick & swift......
they can do nice things, and talk about pikes peak monsters
When will we get the pop up headlights track on soundcloud? The beat is 🔥🔥 🔥
Maybe you need a LED unit from bandai🤣😂
Dollar Hanjabam what??
@@takcleberry just a talk between us
I NEED IT SPONGEBOB.GIF
Wow I just learned so much
King Motorsports here in Wisconsin was the sole North American distributer of Mugen parts when I first visited their shop in 1998. In the parking lot was an Acura NSX with California plates. Yes California guys with NSX's drove their cars to Wisconsin to have them worked on by the best Honda mechanics outside of Japan. King Motorsports build my '01 spec B18C5 w/ Mugen Gymkahna spec manifold in 2004.
So James Pumphrey is, according to my calculations, Jeremy Clarkson’s son
Because of his amazing thick hair, I'd say James May
His father is actually James May. James decided to be with a woman for once to see how the other side lived.
Adam Thompson sure but we know that Jame’s Dad is very large and who’s larger between the two? Clarkson is.
More than likely it's the Stig.
@@adamthompson4072 or both
Favorite Mugen Car:
1. JTCC CD6 Accord
2. Civic RR carbon fiber edition
3. Mugen Legend Max
4. NSX mugen
good lord if that legend max actually ever came out..
Honda City Turbo II
Yeaaaa mojoooooo
Very informative,funniest presenter ever...keep up the good work!
I used to own a bb6 mugen prelude. It was pretty sweet. I really miss it. Nothing quite like that h22a crossover sound.
Up to speed on the Toyota hilux
Yes i know he covered the tacoma and 4runner, but what the hilux has achieved in motorsport and how reliable its proven to be by top gear can’t go unnoticed
Well at least we know it can go fast
normie
The one and only Justin Y. *Welcome*
Ur just RUclips's gallowboob
We know it can go fast but do know Justin Y. knows anything about cars
Lol this might be one of his least liked comments overall
I've had a lot of dirt bikes but my favorite is a 1989 CR250R, had an 87 CR500, wasn't powerful enough to justify to the extra weight. The 89 is just a dream and an animal to ride. I've rebuilt the entire thing from the ground up, basically a factory works bike, even down to titanium fasteners
Now I want Mugen parts for my accord
I just bought a stock gen 1 honda fit and want to see what goodies they have for that.
@@isaacserbin8763 www.favcars.com/mugen-honda-fit-gd-2005-07-photos-255890.htm
Can we get a yamaha episode. I wouldnt mind seing some bike manufacturers
Plus they've developed/helped develop some pretty sweet auto engines
And music instruments
Yamaha CLP625 Digital Piano with bench Polished Ebony - Everything You Need To Know | Up to Speed
Only problem is they are all car guys lol
@@itsgrayson4678 they developed the 4age so who care
Do a full episode on pop up done headlights love that song btw
I don't know why but with this one you finally got me! I subscribeD! Cheers, from Porsche-Land! :P
i'm in love with the 1st gen CRX kit (PRO 1)
I looooove the xbox 360 achievement thing ahaha, great video!
Just would like to say "Big Thank You" guys for the great interesting another episode! I like the style of your vids and vibes - informative and fun to watch. Honestly, I never heart about Mugen! I learned something new today)
pop up and down headlights for xmas number 1. that is a banger
is there a full music video for the pop up headlights, because the world needs one.
James: MUGEN was like that hot girl in every 90s movie, that walks into a party and everything goes in slow motion.
Suzuki: Damn who is that?
Yamaha: Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.
Honda: Chill out guys, that's my SON!
lmao 😂
its either yamaha and suzuki are both full of gay engineers or honda dosent realise that his son is a cross dresser, either situation is frightening...
I almost lost it. 🤣🤣
If this was a Thai company it'll be real
Lmao Yeahhhhh, we need to make this Jeremy Clarkson and James thing happen as he hinted in the video. Reunite him with his British DADDDDDDDDD for a car vid
There was a Mugen Civic Si sedan in my town at the same time my dad had his 2007 Civic Si sedan. One of the few Japanese cars I like and actually looking to purchase soon
Based on affordability, the Mugen S2000 AP1 is my favorite model. Congratulations on the channel, it's very informative and entertaining.
I'm here for cars...but I love motorcycles by default. MOAR MOTORCYCLES BABY!!!
YESSSSSSSS
I agree
More power?
MORE POWER!
How much power?
UNLIMITED POWER!!!!!!
Max Power
no......
MORE MAX POWER
CaptLowRez MOW POWA BABY
More like MUGEN POWER!!!!!
Hey James! One of your fans from overseas here. I was wondering if you guys could do an episode on Dutch car manufacturer Spyker. Much love from The Netherlands and 420 blaze it dude! 🤙
Once I heard you say something about pop up and pop down headlights I was like "OMG PLAY THE SONG PLAY THE SONG" and you did thank you
Mugen S2000.... Even saying it.. is just awesome
One of the worst down there with the da and crx
lol
...you mean the one that spun out on the track at the end of the video?
@@AlejandroGutierrez-ey8bf i personally like the CRX
You're not a weirdo, I absolutely love it and watched it to the end! I'm a Subaru guy, my Honda wife fell asleep! She don't know!! 😂
Thanks donut media... 😁😁👌🏼👌🏼
For today's Honda's, Mugen sells oil caps, shift knobs, and over priced body kits.
Joel Fuentes sad mostly every company is now almost shit compared to what they used to be, this is a good example, BMW is a great one also
No you just only see the oil caps and shift knobs because most american honda owners are too broke and stupid to get actual mugen performance parts. You can look on the mugen website and buy exhaust kits, brake rotors, brake pads, wheels, and all kinds of other performance shit for the current lineup of honda cars
Adrian LaFave yeah after I saw this comment I went and looked on it and they do have way more actual performance parts than I thought, really good line up of stuff
@@lafave2555 wouldnt say too broke or stupid at all. All of their stuff are way overpriced. A damn strut bar will run over 1k. When you can get one with the same performance for 200$. People buy mugen parts just for the bragging rights. Their performance parts are necessarily the best either, there are great company's that sell quality Honda parts like k-tuned, skunk2racing, hybrid racing etc.
@@elas2k159 The companies you mentioned have developed great parts for older Hondas over the years. But they aren't able to release a full catalog of parts as soon as a car is released like Mugen can. Mugen will always be able to make performance parts for the newest cars faster than other companies because they have insider information from Honda. This is why Mugen only makes parts for the current generation of cars, and doesn't support the older ones.
8:18 have you ever heard of a lil company called KTM Powersports?
Or an Indian FTR750 🤷♂️
Did he said " Vor- ks like that " ?
