Semi serious smoking problem

Hey guys! Long time, no post! lol

I've been so busy with my semi-new job that I don't have time for hardly anything else. But I've encountered something pretty serious.

About 60 seconds after a cold start, thick white smoke, that I believe is coolant, starts billowing out of my exhaust pipe. It only comes out of the pipe when the car is idling. Under acceleration, the car has no smoke coming out of the muffler. Now if you remember, I'm running a Japanese imported S4 Turbo rotary 13B. It's done this once before, about 8 months ago, but it smoked for about 20 minutes and stopped. Now it won't stop..

Any ideas? I'm on a tight budget and my rex is my daily, so I gotta get this thing locked down quick. Thanks guys!
