Just a little Independence Day update. Lots of progress today. New valve seals installed and head reassembled, turbo rebuilt, head back on the block and all the misc (mounts, belts, pulley, etc). Have a few other things to wrap up tomorrow then hopefully get this pig fired up.
BIG thanks to T-niggity-Nasty, who also celebrated his 4th by wrenching on a true 'Merican car... Appreciate it dood!

Well, I'm bummed to inform you all that the Jewel isn't going to make it to Carlisle. Tony and I have busted ass the last couple days and it has come down to a very weird issue that neither of us have seen before. I'll tell you more if you'd like to know in person. Basically she is not wanting to start.
But, I'll still be coming and I'm not planning to let this ruin my weekend. Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

It cranks, but a very odd sound (and without any combustion sounds). Almost like the starter is free spinning, I've never head anything like it before. Comp test yielded all four pretty much dead (unless the tester I rented was junk), so that's really the only thing I can point to now. I'll be looking to talk to some other folks at Carlisle and see if they can toss out any ideas.

Dropping my first comment on this thread and im going to quote LSP
P.s hope you sort out the issue!
Your car is:
1. The only one I like that kit on.
2. The only car that can get away with CF fenders
3. Gorgeous
4. I love it and it's color.
I could keep going but...anxious to see how things pan out
Haseeb
Timing belt still spinning?
So many neons so little time.

Howdy everyone, it has been awhile! I have an update you'll probably be interested in...
After 13 years, I've decided that Project Dark Jewel has come to an end. It's something I've been thinking about for the last year or two. Honestly, there isn't much left I could do to the car and I accomplished pretty much everything I ever wanted to with it. So, it's time to move on.
I know I'll get a lot of questions, so yes, I am completely parting out the Jewel. With the sheer quantity of parts and custom pieces, it's the best option.
I plan to start pricing out parts soon-ish, but in the meantime, if you're interested in anything feel free to drop me a message/offer.
And no, I'm not leaving the Neon game altogether. I still have Artie.

Well, I can say for sure the car won't be part of the picture, but I'd still like to meet you at some point, Dave. Maybe our paths will cross in the future!quicksilvr wrote:Dammit, I never got to see this car!
I know, man. Carlisle was always a lot of fun and I want to make it back at some point, but I just can't say for sure when I'll be able to make the trek again.INVUJerry wrote:Boo!! Going to miss you at Carlisle this year too man. What do you plan on moving on to?
This will shock anyone that knows about my S2000 (and knows I'm a Mopar diehard), but my plan for the near term is to give the Red Devil a little love. Nothing too crazy, but enough to make it unique and keep me happy. Hell, that car still only has ~1,500 miles on it (yes, you read that right...1,500). So, just getting that out more and having some fun with it.
Incorrect, sir! The wife and I both have hatred for minivans, so that's not happening.sidepipe87 wrote:^probably a caravan since he's having a little one and he's a turd.
And yes, for anyone who doesn't know, my wife and I are expecting our little guy to make his first appearance in about a month or so. Very excited.
I responded right away last night. Looks like the message is currently sitting in my Outbox.FAC3L3SS wrote:Chris you anus!
I know the scavengers bombarded your inbox, but answer my message first please kthx.
