So my coolant leak get more an more interesting. I'm leaking from the side (towards the rear of the car) of the exhuast manifold, and from what appears to be some sort of breather hole near the bottom of the transmission. Any idea on how bad this is? Is is an internal seal thats blown? or just something to do with the intake/exhuast?

very difficult to understand exactly where your talking. Is it dribbling from the exhaust manifold to the tranny or dribbling out of the tranny housing.

I can guess either way it doesn't sound good at all. I can also guess it's probably an outer coolant seal on the housing. Rebuild. I can't remember if the rear end housing has a freeze plug. That would be easy so it's probably not that.

It's two serparate leaks. and theres no freeze plug that I can see. I'm just going to tow it to Mazdatrix, since their pretty close, and have them rebuild and install some performance part into it....make the whole thing worth it, yeh know.

Mazdatrix. Bad *** guys there. They will take care of you. They ported my motor and lapped my end and intermediate housings. They have the lapping machine that most shops lack.

Anyway. It does sound like you need a rebuild.

I went down there to pick up some gaskets, and was very impressed by the compatance and level of service I got there.
