OK...i am interested in buying a 1991 VR-4. It has 90,000 on the chasis. He said that he went into a puddle - locked the engine and bent a rod. So he says....
But he put new
new engine
bigger pistons
new clutch
front brakes with cross-drilled rotors
new plug wires
iridium plugs
The only downside of this car is that it smokes everytime it starts up (its starts up everytime).
He says that it might be the turbo seals - never replaced when car was overhauled.
So your probably wondering when i am going to get to the point. Well i was wondering if anyone has seen that smoking b4. I really want the car but i have to convince my dad that it is worthwhile. Can anyone tell me what could be the matter with this car? THANKS!

Typically white smoke means coolant and/or water being vaporized in the combustion chamber
Possible causes:
Engine too cold (no repair needed)
Head gasket leaking
Cracked block or cylinder head
Keep in mind there could be another cause...these aren't the only possible 3.

could the head gasket leaking cause my engine to overheat?
