car smokes (yes i've already searched it)

i searched for my problem already and found no definite answers. plain and simple, my car eats oil like shaq eats fried chicken and every time i rev it up past 5 or 6 thousand rpms it smokes and its pissing me off cause i have to buy new oil like every 3 days. it happens more often when im in 2nd gear and it doesn't happen everytime i drive it. i have a 1989 GTUs and any help you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated. you can e-mail me at mothyy@gmail.com and if any of you know any shops local to torrance, CA (not to far) i know theres the japanese car clinic but im not sure how there prices are on fixing and i was also wondering if its fixable by myself.

thanks again

YOU HAVE BAD OIL SEALS!
YOU NEED A REBUILD!
AS A TMPORARY FIX, PUT 'NO LEAK' IN WITH YOUR OIL
.......
or, you could try posting this in the '2nd gen technical' area of the site
or better yet, search and see if its already covered.

Nah, that'd make sense.... and wouldn't be abrasive... (non Newb Like).

Before you get your panties in a bunch, READ THE SECTION. "Upcomin Events / Regional Forums" I.E. technical questions go into the technical secions, unless you have a question that's regional, like how do I start my FB in Alaska @ -40 F ? That's a Regional Technical Qustion !

Also you migh try a heavier weight oil or an oil pressure restrictor.... either of which will fix the situation temporarily but if the turbo is shot, not for long....

what's this noob's problem? He goes into the wrong section and gets mad when people don't tell him what he wants to hear. Noobs like him are the reason why we're such jerks to noobs. Did a search my ***. I bet if I did a search in the 2nd Gen section I'd find what he needs. But I'm not the one with the smoking car, so no need for me to go through the trouble.

If someone had posted an intelligent redirection for him. You know, something like this.
The best section you can put your thread is in the 2nd Gen specific section. Do a search in that section and if you don't find anything someone will be able to help you.

Not everyone knows that the West Forum is like walking into a room with the three stooges.

you guys are the biggest idiots in the ******* world, if you read the title of my post, that obviously states that i already searched for "car smoking 1989" and i specified it to search every possible forum on this website and found nothing relating to my problem. therefore you guys are the douche bags. i just thought the west people would be able to help someone on the west coast because you guys know of more places to take my ******* car.

I just thought the west people would be able to help someone arrogant and obknochious on the west coast because you guys know of more people who are like that in L.A. than any other places on the planet. So, now whom can I tick off, with my arrogance and take my flippin' car to ?

Sorry had to "edit" your post, to get all the cursing censored so that all the other 13 year old girls can read it without getting their panties in a wad !

Edit: I'm trying out to be a Mod ! !!!

Yo noob, what makes you think that limiting your search to the EXACT year of your car is gonna get you any results? Why not put the color of your car and the VIN number in the search as well? Learn how to search before coming on here and calling people names. People have already answered your question, and now they're doing what they do. If you don't like the answer, go ask somewhere else.

btw, if you're looking for a shop, I can GUARANTEE that a search will bring up names of shops. We get that same question every other week. I don't believe that you went through the trouble of doing proper research before coming on here and talking **** to everyone. Either accept the culture of this section or stop coming on here.

Gawd, these noobs are starting to really irk me. Maybe it's the lack of cigarettes.... at least he didn't ask about drifting his mad tyte JDM FC yo.
