Unhappy Houston... I think we have a problem
I went out for a drive tonight and I noticed something strange. When I VTEC'd and shifted to 2nd, when I was in 2nd it stayed at a certain RPM almost like it didn't have the willy to get up all the way. Anybody have ANY idea what this could be??? Opinions much appreciated.

Phil

if you shifted hard, that would be your lovely 04 delay valve - ditch the bitch ASAP!

Sounds like the clutch delay valve on the slave cylindar. This is a "feature" on AP2 cars.

Talk to S2000GT about swapping it over.
