The H22 engine is aluminum, with steel Cylinder sleeves... The steel they used is too hard (and,or) the piston rings are a softer steel, so after wear and tear (Especially at higher RPM's) , The rings wear down too much and allow oil to pass through as engine is running... Oil lost is really going into the combustion chamber and out the exhaust pipe. I recently bought a 1998, with 108,000mi. and It loses a quart of oil every 1000 miles or so. This is a pretty normal issue with this car and engine, especially if not "well-maintained".
