Hi ,wondering if anyone can recommend a decent 1jz mechanic on the central coast Gosford area ,my car is blowing enough smoke when cold to have me arrested by Greenpeace for a major enviromental catastrophe.

It was strange all the research I did pointed to valve stem seals or piston rings it only blew smoke for the first 5 minutes when it was cold and lots of it ,cheaper replacing turbos than pistons :-)
