i was reading that the stock oil capacity of the sr is 3.5qts. i read this AFTER i put in 4.5qts. Just wondering how bad this could be, i did it yesterday but i plan to remove at least .5qts today.

If your removing it there souldnt be any problem...If you put to much oil in,It will release oil into your intake piping or catch can if you have one..

your crank can aerate the oil if it hits it and cause a drop in oil pressure=spun bearings.
