d15 blown rings

- Wed May 11, 2011 7:05 am #254699 i might be getting a si hatch with a d15 ( idk what exact one yet) but he says it burns oil and that the rings are blown. what would all need to be done replaced, i mean obviously the rings, hone the cylinders. am i gunna have to expect some new valves or maybe pistons? he says it still runs but jsut burns oil. i dont need this engine really as i have a h22 im swapping in there but maybe a lil turbo beast down the road...
