Default oil loss somewhere....

ok so i have a 93 hatch with a b15b8 motor. about every 3-4 days i have to put a quart of oil in it. its not leakin anywhere so i think its burnin through it. i was considering doing mini-me but i dont want to if i have to replace rings and god knows what else. one friend says its rings (which i agree with) and the other says valve seal. friend 2 thinks its in the head so when i do the mini-me it will take care of it. any suggestions on where the oil is getting burnt/lost?? any info would help. thanks.

Wait...what kind of motor?

Obviously you're burning it since there are no leaks. How many miles are on the motor?

Get a leak down/compression test done.
That will tell you whether its rings or seals
