Hey guys I'm new to the rx7 cars and know nothing about these things but I just got an 87 turbo car that has a bad coolant leak. Looks like its the intake manifold gasket or something just above the exhaust manifold toward the back side of the engine. I can't see exactly where it's coming from but it's bad enough that when I pour coolant into the car it pours out just as quick as I pour it in. Any ideas?

Sounds like your car may have been overheated or has lost its coolant seals as you make it sound like its leaking from the engine block itself.

What coolant seals? I dont know anything about these engines so I'm completely clueless. Looks like an intake manifold gasket or freeze plug to me but I can't see it at all. The guy I got the car from said it was a rubber hose behind the intake but I can't see any hoses there.

if its a hose behind the intake manifold its might be the one going from the bac to the rear of the engine.
