Alright so i was driving to get something to eat and all of a sudden i look back at my car like i always do and i noticed a little fluid. leaking out of the trans, so i take my light out and look absolutly everywhere and since my rb is in a s13 it has no room to look, but anyway I noticed kinks in the heater core hoses (combined the ones from my s13 to the rb original ones, anyway I noticed a kink but i couldnt find a noticeable leaking area, so i drive it slowly back home and it overheats and i hear a pop, and so i shut it off get fluid and i pop the hood and its spraying all on the passenger side but i couldnt find a damn spot i got home and put it on the lift and no luck no idea where i can find the leak at its very small but it boils when your sitting still. any suggestions?

If you haven't already, flush your coolant to refill it with a BRIGHTLY COLORED coolant. After the engine has ran long enough to cycle coolant through all the hoses, shut the engine off and start squeezing all the hoses by hand. You should see the bright coolant dripping out of whatever leaks you have.
