Well, the engine is all apart. Long behold, the effin oil control rings were the culprits here. Head gasket was good, pistons were good(pistons had a black coating on them, I've seen other type r pistons, but never with this type of coating). New pistons are going in, new belt and water pump as well. I thought the engine was going to be a p.o.s, but internally everything looks good, very good. Thanks everyone for their feedback, hopefully in the future, someone will use this post in their time of need.

OK, I was done with putting the engine back together. Last time the engine was burning oil it was from the oil control rings. The head was pressure tested an all, new valve seals, no valve job(valves were good). We started the engine, AND ITS STILL BURNING F***ING OIL!!!!!!! New cp pistons and rings were installed, so what the hell is doing this, any thoughts of ideas??

one time a friend of mine accidently hookedup the PCV line directly to a port on the manifold and it was sucking up oil into the motor while it was in vaccum.. we pulled the head once for new vavle seals, and we pulled the pistons once for new rings.. He was always the one to take it apart and put it back together so I never noticed the vac line.. Finally one day I was like wtf and started looking at everything.. I found the vac line hooked up to a port in the back/bottom on the manifold and that had been the problem the whole time lol..

mmhhhhhh... My car is originally a 99 gsr and we just dropped in a 98 type r. I noticed that the gsr engine had more connections and sensors than the type r. I'm currently hooking up the pcv valve hose directly to the top plug on the manifold, and now I have nothing plugged to the canister(under by the battery) Could that be it?

Thank you guys for the info, it all helped and just made my life much easier. For anybody reading this thread and having the same issue, read all the posts and it will help you a bunch. My car is now running like a champ, thanks again.
