ouch that seems like soemone didnt get the head cleaned good enough or didnt clean the bl0ck good enough or didnt take the rivet out of the head gasket before he put it in...if there were swurls on the head it could cause it to leak check your compression you may be getting shitty compression do to the head gasket not sealing and white smoke? not good could be the coolent leaking into the exhaust or may just be oil from the plugs but that normaly goes away fairly quickly keep an eye on your coolant level you may have bent a valve and its causing the bogging...im just shooting here im not completly sure without seeing the car if someone thinks im wrong in any way feel free to jump in

the last time he check his spark plug, he told me that it has coolant on it. actually it was a mixture with oil and coolant. and once he cleaned it up and put new spark plug it ran good for about 3 months....and it will acted up again. so now it didn't have no coolant...just whole bunch of oil fill up 5 and 6 plug. can he still able to drive the car temporary awhile the car is smoking white?...and what is his chance or remove it....? he is really sick worried.

well at this moment my buddy is looking for an head gasket. either a performance or oem. not sure. plus also he looking for a shop that do it for reasonable price to replace head gasket.

i would of done it for him if i know much about supras...

so now it start up without any white smoke...but alwhile the car is moving...little smoke coming out and then a huge white cloud. so now the car hasn't been running ever since this happen.
