It's called a rebuild.

haha, I told my buddy mine smoke like a ***** with a crack habit! im getting some used ones put in tomorrow for about the cost of a rebuild. I would probably rebuild mine but i think they are beyond rebuilding. they really smoke bad at low speeds and even worse at a complete stop. every day it gets worse... just so you know.

its pretty funny though. nobody tailgates me, and they stay like 2 or 3 cars back at lights. people that pull up next to me start coughing or they roll up thier windows. people give me wierd looks when they see I have the James Bond smoke screen option on my car. at the light all you see is a cloud of smoke, then it turns green and a bright yellow car comes out.. kinda like magic!

just make sure you keep a couple quarts of oil with you in the car...
