Did you try replacing the $15 PCV valve? If that gets stuck, crankcase pressure can cause evacuation of oil past the rings.

Mines just started to smoke a bit like this but its due to the new ART Test pipes i bought lol. Smells horrible but thats test pipes i use to leave massive trails of white smoke smelling like burnt oil but i don't even add but 1 quart of synthetic oil until3k which is normal cause synthetic oil does burn out quicker.Thing is test Pipes have oil in them used while being bent and so they won't rust while they sit.

That looks like smoke from warm moisture in the pipes + cold air

You're not alone. There are numerous G and Z owners that have noticed the same exact thing after adding TPs and exhaust. They remove the TPs and the consumption stops. Do a Google search search for "oil consumptions and test pipes" and note how many Gdriver and my350z threads pop up. It sure seems to me like some VQ's have OC issues when you open up the exhaust significantly.

and no (thescreensavers) def not moisture and it wasnt cold out.....the car ran for maybe a minute total before i washed it, that was after i washed it and dried it off. and the temps were in the high 40s that day.
