I have noticed for quite some time now that when i start my car a good amount of smoke comes from the tail pipe. I know my rings are probably going bad and im really not looking forward to paying 500+ to get it fixed. Has anyone else had this problem and gotten the ring job to fix it??? Is there something cheaper i should try first to fix the problem? any feedback would be much appreciated! thanks

****...my rings are going....
 Today I had a competition for exhaust noise during a meet...my exhaust sound 124dB but what I saw wasn't funny at all.... whean at WOT ang going over 4500 Rpm a big quantity of blue / gray smoke came off the exhaust.... **** **** ****!!!! within december I've to change rings!!!!! maybe I'll use 4AGZE pistons and, if I'll have cash, I'll go for cutom rods....so I'll can run a decnt turbo setup!!!  Anyway....for the moment... EDIT luckily the compression is fine but the oil consumption a bit high....1Kg for 1000Km.....
