alright guys I'm pretty sure i have a coolant leak. I thought it was just rain water at first burning off the cat, or maybe oil (I just changed my oil a couple days ago), but it was smoking this morning when I got home and it's not rainy!
anyway, it's definetly coolant, but I'm trying to figure out where it's coming from. I popped open the hood and the smoke was coming from the drivers side of the motor. I'm thinking it's either the heater hoses or that throttle body thing. I didn't see any visual leaks and the coolant level is fine, also the car isn't running hot at all.
I'm going to stick it up on the ramps in a bit and check it out. hopefully it's not the headgasket or something :shock: at least I have all the parts..
as for why it did this suddenly, I'm sure weekend of driving it hard in autox plus me bouncing off the revlimiter @6900rpm probably didn't help. hopefully it'll get me to work one more night. :)
