Try topping it off a little, go a 1/4 inch over the full line. It is almost certainly the fluid sloshing back when you accelerate now that the brakes have broken in and sucked some of it up.

If it doesn't work let us know.

I raced the Si to 4th gear and he stayed about a car behind the whole time...Of course when i rolled my window down at the next light all i heard was"I smoke those things all the time but my car isn't running right at this time"So me being the cocky a**hole that i am i said"yeah i smoke those all the time and they always have the same excuse,its not running right".He didn't like that very much but how are you gonna roll up on someone and try and race and when you loose make some b/s excuse about it not running right,if its not running right dont try and race..Sorry had to vent god damn honda drivers!!!! No offense to anyone here that drives a honda...

As far as fluid its right at the full line so im gonna ad a lil fluid and see if that does the trick

its ok you can vent we all feel your frustration with those type of people but i gotta ask a question did you see the spoiler / wing and was it one of those over sized metal ones that make the car look like a shopping cart.. i find that most of the honda owners in my area like those metal shopping cart spoilers

I have gotten that response soooooo many times man. They just don't get it. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of fast honduhs out there, but most of the time its all excuses. At least he gave it a good run and actually had a turbo...what i really hate is those kids with fart cans thinking louder = faster and trying to run with us all the time. Tell him you had a warning lamp flashing and beeping at you from the get go and to stop making excuses.

Sorry for the double post.....Actually i was quit suprised it didn't have a spoiler on it and honestly it was a good looking Si(2000 electro blue) but yeah PHR it had a huge exhaust and it sounded like a damn tank(sh*t)....So next time i loose a race i will have to think of a good excuse on why i lost lets see.....huh

SI:Thats a pretty quick car but not quit quick enough
SRT4:Well see what happened is i was in the shower this morning and i slipped and hit my knee, there for when i try and push in the gas pedal i get a sudden pain in it so i cant press the pedal all the way down,but i know i can beat that car i beat them all the time,So just take my word for it......Screw that if you lost to me chances are you lost to the rest of the srt's and your just trying to say that cause you have to find a way to justify putting $3000 grand into a $18,000 car and still gettin worked by a NEON.......Sorry I feel better now!!
