When I start the car it doesnt smoke only after its been runing for a while or if I'm driving then come to a stop it'll smoke. I havent checked the oil levels, but I'll check tomorrow. I doubt i've been burning a quart a day but then again I havent been checking. I havent been driving the car because of the issue, I dont really want to risk anymore harm. I don't really have much money right now to get anything fixed. I've been thinking about getting a compression test but havent been able to come around to it. I'm trying to save up some money so that if the motor does have to get dropped I can do a few other things like put a headgasket and/or some other things.

I also believe its a usdm 92 because when I had to buy the alternator I purchased it for a 93 and I had fitment issues. I bought a Denzo alternator and it was a 100a and it fit fine and I had no issues. Also it has the funnel shaped extension at the throttle. How much does a compression test cost? How do I pull/check the code?
