Im all out of idea. appritiate any feed back. thanks. and if you have no advise or even if you do and know a shop that works on jdm motors in the hampton rd area that could help too. again thanks

After reading these things = blown headgasket.

White smoke = blown headgasket
Blue smoke = oil
Black smoke = gas
