Your engine is fucking broken.



In an 84 Suburban with 250,000 miles I would STILL be concerned that there is something wrong.


My BRZ has absolutely ZERO discernible oil consumption.
So I would consider 1 quart in 5000 miles to be excessive.
Oh, yeah. BS for sure but on my one HPDE session 2 summers ago I went through 8oz. Normally it doesn't use any but I like to crank the wheel hard over from time to time. A little bit doesn't surprise me and I was probably a bit generous with my estimate, Just like Subie probably was with theirs.
