Bad compression/white smoke

[Slidewayz90]

So ive had this s13 for about 3 months now just did a compression test yesterday and all 4 cylinders read 120,then i poured a bit of oil into the cylinder and it read 150,also when i rev it hard lots of white smoke comes out.....any ideas on what it could be?

You have bad piston rings

[s13silvia123]

blown headgasket causes white smoke, bad piston rings causes blue smoke

[Driftius_Maximus]

That's true but a cracked head gasket most likely wouldnt cause bad comp in all cylinders. And the comp wouldn't go up by pouring oil in it.

i thought smoke was just black or white i didnt know it came out blue ill check again

[Slidewayz90]

took a closer look at it and it was blue smoke.....dam not good....well thanks anyways guys

Bad rings. Just rebuild it and you'll have a solid motor.

Good choice. I love my S14 sr d:mrmeph:

im gonna be honest i dont know much about SRs what are some disadvantages besides the fact you cant get parts at a local parts store like what are some things i should look out for?

[Driftius_Maximus]

There are actually quite a few sr replacement parts that cross with some of the usdm nissans. If u search you can find a list. I've had no problems with my current sr. I fried the rings on my first one but I made the mistake of buying with a lot of drift miles already on it. Don't do that. Check out jdmmotorcorps.com . This were my sponsor ordered mine.
