I just got my jdm gsr rebuilt with nippon itr pistons and rings, supertech flat valves, dual springs titnuim retainer, new head gakete and its only been 2000
miles on the motor. my problem is its smoking. It smokes when i sometimes downshift or floor it in fifth gear going at only 45-60 mph. The smokes are blueish white it only happens sometimes and when it smoke its not constant its more like a puff. any help would be apperciated

 

i belive blueish white is coolant burning

 

if its not constant and only does it when you do pulls could be that its burning when vtec engages, should hardly be noticeable.

It burns with a puff even if its before vtec, but when in vtec you are right the smoke is not noticable

 

you burn more oil when vtec engages so idk..almost every car that i see blows black smoke when vtec engages

 

Mine dosen't smoke at all in v-tec. Stock ECU FTW.


What did you have it tuned on?

 

any other idea?

 

bump....

 

Are you sure the o2 sensors are plugged in and clean? o2's measure air and stuff so that might be why. Correct me if I'm wrong.

btw, if you have a catless exhaust, that's pretty normal from what I've seen.
