I owna 94 wrx and in the mornings when it is cold i start my car and i get smaoke coming from the exhaust (not steam). The smoke is a bluey white colour and its not a lot but its there. It is only there when the car has been sitting there overnight and will only be there for about 5 mins when im warming up the car.

Any ideas on what the hell is going on?

You're burining oil. Blue smoke is almost always a sign you are burning oil. How can you fix it? No idea if you could DIY though.

I'll bet you a nickel it's just the seals around the valve stems if it only happens on warm up. As long as you don't go through a quart a week, you're ok ;). My 90 RX turbo did that too. Just a sign of an older engine :D.

Well lets hope that it is that and nothing worse. I dont lose very much oil it very small amounts not really noticable but i always keep my eye on it anyways

Check your head gasket. Your engine is burning oil. (as stated above). As the engine heats up the metal in and aroudn the engine expands to cover the cracks/gaps in the gasket. I have seen a lot of this on domestics.

Something to worry about? Not right now. but the cracks/gaps sometimes get worse. It depends on how you drive your car. And I know if I had a real WRX how I would drive it.......
