| Mattes |
The sedan my grandpa heritaged it to me.

What's the button next to your sunroof button do? | ||
| Mr.ef2sedan |
rear fogs I think. |
||
| Mattes |
no, the rear fog button is on the left under the cluster.
the button next to the sunroof button is an immobilizer. It was built in from the previous owner 
When I press it, then I can't start the engine.

So, new pictures from my ED7 Hatchback wintercar
Photos where taken this evening! Today I built H&R springs in. 35mm lower
regards, Mattes 
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Hatch is lookin good bud. Is that a photoshopped flare, or one hell of a bright parklight? lol | ||
| Mattes |
the pictures are original uploaded on www.ipernity.com/home/matteskoeln
There are no fakes with photoshop or such progs
The pictures are "private" on ipernity... so you can't see them... In this parkdeck I shot some photos with my sedan some xyears ago. Look here: 
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Your park lights are super bright! Maybe brighter then my highbeams. | ||
| Mattes |
that only seems so, 'cause I use long exposure

Jippieh! My new camera has arrived!
Took direct a photo of my city, Cologne and my Hatchback It's drity and a little unsharp, but that's not important for me at this moment
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
What kind of cam? | ||
| Mattes |
Fuji FinePix S5600
bought really(!) cheap on ebay -woohoo! I'm really happy at this moment
The equiment was part of the auction
My old one was defect - since new years eve
The repairing have to cost 150 Euro. I searched at Ebay, and then: I found this beauty - 160 Euro
With much more equiment!!! |
||
| ~Sp33~ |
I was thinking camshaft for some reason.
New camera looks awesome, plenty of accessories. |
||
| Mattes |
lol some missunderstoods - I'm sorry
|
||
| Mattes |
I found a really rare part! I never knew, that was sold such a part.
I found it in the near of Frankfurt (Main). Today I drove to the items location. The seller said, that the part was brandnew and only was outlying in the garage since 1990. Nice to see, that the badge with the partnumber is in good condition, too 
Two pictures: 
Regards! |
||
| ~Sp33~ |
I would have so much use for that.
Currently i don't even have a floor in my trunk. |
||
| 89civicracer |
Right. . I am still looking for some trunk carpet for mine. .
Mine is all busted. . 
|
||
| Mattes |
I don't know, how to discribe this situation, correct. But: I parked my ED7 in Kaiserslautern (some US guys know that City as "K-Town" ).
And as I came back, I saw another ED7 right beside of my little red one. So: Kaiserslautern red and white
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
I always park next to Honda's when i can. | ||
| Mattes |
new photo
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Great picture. | ||
| Mattes |
just now auctioned on ebay.
EE9 trunk door with garnish and all badges. cheapcheap 
|
||
| mitsubishiv5 |
love it. i hate you for such rare parts. fcuk. | ||
| Mattes |
lol
I just bought it, 'cause it's everytime possible, that another car crash into my nice ED7. I hope not, but it's possible. And if the door is rio-red, it's better
|
||
| 89civicracer |
Nice find. .
Hope the color matches. . |
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Should've just bought the decal, it would've been cheaper, lol. | ||
| Mattes |
so, guys. Please don't kill me, but I need the device!
And only ED7 is allowed to pull 1000 kg, in Germany. ED6 (90 hp), EC8 (75 hp) and EC9 (90 hp) are only allowed to pull 900 kg... And on my Sedan I don't want have a coupling device
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Looks like you bolted a penis to the back of your hatchback. | ||
| jkgonzalez3 |
haahahaahha i didn't want to say anything | ||
| Mattes |
My ED7 is a horny whore, you want to say?
|
||
| Mattes |
built on the third brakelight, but I don't know how to put in the plug to connect it 
nude
allready: 
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Didn't you buy an indiglo garnish for the hatch as well? | ||
| Mattes |
No. You were the seller. And you sold it to another one!
You were faster, than I could buy.
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Oh right..
|
||
| Mattes |
did you thought I would forget this?
Doesn't matter, come on! I put on my summerwheels, today! My old known OZ racing F1 wheels. 7x15" offset 37 mm. But now is the car lower to the street, than in November, when I put the winterrims on. So, I have to test: Do it fit? Or have I to turn-over the edges? It fits! There is no space for a paper... but... it doesn't matter, when it fits!
Regards |
||
| LXKID88 |
Ef hatchs own. | ||
| Mattes |
the third brake light is glowing 
polished the whole car, yesterday! And then came the rain
|
||
| Mattes |
rear spoiler - I repaired the parts at the edges ... left and right
And the clear blinker glasses of a Civic Shuttle Facelift 90-91
|
||
| Mattes |
so, what's the difference to the original?
It's quiz game *hihi*
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
That steering wheel looks comfortable. | ||
| Mattes |
thank you, but it isn't the steering wheel.
It's the windshield, I get new. With antiglare shield
woohoo

It's all in german language. But I think, you understand what's written there.... 
|
||
| jkgonzalez3 |
i didn't understand anything on there but judging by your smiley face and the way it's posted does it mean that the car is for sale? | ||
| Mattes |
yes
|
||
| cleanRENO90 |
its a good looking hatch. since i dont personally know the car, or you. all i can say is GLWS | ||
| ~Sp33~ |
Why?!
Shame bro. |
||
| Mattes |
what does that mean? 
yes, Steve. I'm very sad, also. But I'm trying to hold the car. Better days will come... but I don't know when.... damnit
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Atleast it's not the sedan!
GLWS = Good Luck With Sale. |
||
| Mattes |
I love Hatchbacks AND Sedans. Sedans more... sure.. but normally I wanted to hold both cars.
My ED2 is not for sale. NEVER! It's from my grandpa... It's more than1 Million Euro worth for me.... hmm |
||
| ~Sp33~ |
What happened to that wagon? Can you sell that? | ||
| Mattes |
yes, I try to sell it, too.
But it's very hard to find someone who'll buy it. |
||
| Mattes |
next week I'll build in the power steering out off the EE4 Shuttle into my ED7 H/B.
hrhr 
hihi... March 1993
|
||
| Mattes |
nice video: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/matteskoeln/5855978/ | ||
| liljoey |

| Mattes |
Thank you!
I don't sell my H/B anymore. Only that Shuttle bitch
|
||
| liljoey |
thats good to hear.i like this car alot.got ne pics of the shuttle bitch?lol | ||
| Mattes |
here's that shuttle: http://efcivicsedan.myfreeforum.org/about1491.html | ||
| liljoey |
damn that shuttle bitch is tight.how could i get this car imported?only $647.oo?r u serious? | ||
| Mattes |
there are some things that have to be repaired.... yes, I'm serious | ||
| liljoey |
do u know how to get it imported?thats crazy | ||
| Mattes |
sorry, I really dunno
|
||
| ME-B-N-ME |
just go on Google and search from car importers..
might be a pretty penny to get it over here though
Clean hatch looks a lil like my roommates old hatch |
||
| Mattes |
yes, that little H/B gives alot fun to me.
More, than I can give back
But my heart is taken... by the ED2....
|
||
| liljoey |
yea it is pretty expensive.but glws | ||
| Mattes |
I asked a shipping company for shipping the Shuttle to the US and I'm expecting an answer tomorrow... but I don't know... I think it'll spend more money to ship the car, than it's worth.... that's insane! |
||
| ME-B-N-ME |
It would be cheaper to fly there, live there, but the car.. and drive it haha | ||
| Mattes |
sadly, my ED2 Sedan lives not at present
I would like to show you pictures of it, now. But it's "only" my ED7 Hatch. hmm... let me tell.... I HAD HELLA FUN! Damn, yes! I had so much fun! unbelievable.... I hope the next time the weather will be better than yesterday! 
aaaaaaaand: PWN3D this AMG: 
|
||
| ~Sp33~ |
Cool pictures. | ||
| ME-B-N-ME |
First pic is my Fav | ||
| Mattes |

So, today delivered
OEM
inside, there's a small lamp 
underneath and at the edges it's covered with leather!  hmm
|
||
| ME-B-N-ME |
What the Hell is it? | ||
| 89civicracer |
??????
|
||
| Mattes |
a cassette case!? | ||
| ~Sp33~ |
DUH!........
... Where does it go? |
||
| ME-B-N-ME |
|
||
| Mattes |
it goes directly under the radio for the small center console. I thought it goes into the big center concole.
So I can do nothing with the cassette case... shit... so, I was on the Nordschleife again. My brakes are down, now. Tomorrow I'll drive to work by bus.. it makes no sense to drive with brake,s that are down....
The Mazda was an enemy. I beaten it hrhr 
|
||
| Mattes |
Installed new brakes on the front:
right: 
left (it was rainy...): 
The new brakes are from EBC... disks are from EBC and the pads also. but the fluid isn't new, yet... I wait for the flexible steal-tubes, then I'll make it new |
||
| Mattes |
I take you for a free ride on my Hatchback.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qX6wfDkST2A In the curve I slided with the front wheels |
||
| ~Sp33~ |

| Mattes |
No, I didn't see. I'll take a look directly
