my aus spec vr4 runs normal accept for a little bit of white smoke, also liquid coming out of exhaust tip and very slowly out of the exhaust manifold(from manifold to turbo and also from manifold to head) this liquid has no smell and I'm guessing that its coolant. when I check the coolant it seems fine and is not low, also the oil is fine. Fuel economy is good and the only mods I have is 3 inch turbo back exhaust, I've had this problem for a while and recently changed the exhaust manifold gasket but it didnt do anything. Now I'm thinking that it could be the head gasket but not to sure. Any advice would be great.
Liquid coming from exhaust tip and exhaust manifold???

Yeah the car is parked outside and doesn't puff as much smoke anymore. I took the car to APC (advanced performance centre) and they said it was oil slowly seeping out of the rocker cover and settling on the manifold. If this is the case then i would probaly change the rocker cover gasket this weekend and then see how it goes.
