probably cause youve been learning how to burn out and doing other ricey activities which take a toll on your poor motor. must be the awesome power your getting from your jdm intook...

do a compression test to see if its the rings. but it may also be the valve stem seals

anything lower than 150ish is bad and needs a rebuild

There's your problem right there... I think people are probably feeding you ---- advice just to ---- with ya. I'd start doing more research on your own because I'd be a monkey's uncle if anyone anywhere is going to give you a straight answer, ever.
