Smoking s13
Ok, when im at the light and i accelerate...white smoke puffs out the exhaust. That hasnt happen before even thou i have a straight pipe. I have heard a few hints on it being oil, even thou oil still is good. Any Suggestions?

maybe your mistaking it for steam when your car is cold. it's condensation.
Re: Smoking s13 (nifares240)
Well i thought of that, but it happens when the car is warmed up and the weather is warm.

Sounds like blown head gasket. Take it to the closest shop that can CO test your radiator. It's cheap and the true way to tell if you have a blown head gasket. Milky oil means water is in the crankcase but the KAE is known to tear the drives side timing chain off and then the chain rubs a whole in the cover allowing coolant to enter the crankcase. This doesn't happen so much on the KADE. Point is milky oil doesn't always mean a blown head gasket.
