get a compression test and check the coolant pressure.
read the FAQ section at the top of this thread..
maybe the link should be flashing green neon that says "Noobs Start Here --> RX7 faq, info, how to and much much more".
or maybe "Just buy a RX7 and know absolutely nothing about it --> START HERE!"
Although, that Veilside front bumper and body kit could be causing ALL the smoke you see, remove it and put on the factory or 99 spec bumperand things might clear up fast!

There's been plenty of useful info already. Let me spell it out for you; start here:

That aside, I think your car is committing suicide.
either that or maybe you have an oil leak around the turbo? You know since there's fresh oil around the turbo and it's blowing smoke out the exhaust, seems logical don't you think? possibly the turbo is pushing oil and needs to be rebuild.
