Default WTF!!? Water in mah cylinderz :P

So the other day I was changing my spark plugs on my gsr and as I remove them they are dripping with water, I'm like wtf!? My car is running just fine and has not given me problems since I bought it but how the hell can water get in without damaging my engine?

Btw I have a CAI but had it short ram for 2 months, the owner before me had the CAI on if that helps any. TIA

i had same issue once, i was so scared something was badly wrong, and i had a sri, so i was thinking and thinking ,then i remeber i pressure washed my engine bay one day, and i guess my spark plugs werent pressed in all the way and water got into the cylinders but that was all my engine runs fine till this day, so maybe you have diff spark plugs wires that dont fit right exactly or water got in somehow.i wudnt really worry about it, it happens all the time,take spark plugs out and check to see if water is inside the piston if not ur good to go

Yeah the spark plugs are in the cylinders, now that I think about it I remember that a couple of days before my mom was putting water i the reservoir tank and I'm not to sure but I think she wet the whole motor. I just wanted to make sure if it was gonna be ok or if I should be worried. Thanks for the input
