cool jdm exhaust smoke + burning oil
i posted this awhile ago, never got any responses. searched, found a few similar subjects.. but never got a good answer.
i have a jdm b16a, did a compression test.. 120 across.. my oil gets low every week, everytime i hit madd vtec my exhaust blows white/blueish smoke.. and i noticed today that my coolant resevior was low..
could that be piston rings, or more than likely a head gasket?

I'd look towards the head gasket. Those numbers do seem a little low across the board, though. A girl who knows me and asks me everything because I'm a honda tech (sorry just venting), her numbers where 172,165,171,168. Don't quote me but to my memory that's what she had.

Oil and coolant are being combusted because your head gasket isn't sealing properly.
A new head gasket should fix your problems.

ya i was gonna say check your valve seals and rings for the oil problem but the coolant too defently sounds like u gotta a little headgasket problem. when u get a new 1 just make sure you bolt the head down to the right tourqe specs and in the right order.
