Default D16Z6 Smokes @ High RPM's

I have a d16z6 and everytime I get to high rpm's white/black smoke come out of the exhaust majorly. I have black shyt all over my back bumper also. Also it smokes a little bit before I get to vtec. vtec is when it mainly smokes.

vtec engines are supposed to smoke a little bit while vtec is engaged. white smoke is coolant being burned, black smoke usually means your running rich, and blue smoke it oil. have you checked your coolant levels lately?

checked coolant: good
oil is always disapearring. I think it may be valve seals. But f-it Y8 comin I hate the Z6 something always happens to them when I have one.

If valve seals are bad, it will smoke under decel. Smoke under accel is rings.

I am having the same problem It has brand new rings 75mm bore with new pistons and the who engine is brand new! But the old engine use 2 have bad rings so theres alot of old oil in the exhaust do you think it could be because its burning off all the old stuff at higher rpm? Or could it be because my valve lash isnt adjusted right? I have valve ticking idk any help would be Awesome!!!!!!!
