i recently posted this thread:
https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....72#post1892672
my engine a spilling out white smoke at idle after it gets warm. quite a bit of white smoke. i thought this was from racing it but i actually hit a fairly big rock about 2 days before the smoke occurred. i blew it off b/c the white smoke coincidentally started within hours of racing a turbo supra. so i did not give the rock much after thought.
any of you know what a rock could have possibly done to cause the white soke i'm now seeing? (NOTE: i have not yet had a chance to check it out - will be looking under the car this weekend when we can get it on a lift).
thanks in advance guys!

so far, the oil and coolant levels are fine. i called jotech motorsports so they could check it out. they said i COULD have bent the oil tank so the engine is now not getting enough. just one possibility. they are checking it out on dec 8th. i'll have to keep you guys posted.
