Car Overheating HELP!!!
The car seems to be loosing fluid from under the car under a lil black box (not the radiator) on the driver side. It seems the be dripping off one of the bolts. The box is a black box the shape of a square with 4 bolts in it. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

i believe he was referring to the description of your mystery "black" box. is this the black box that's visible from the top of your engine or the black box behind the intake manifold?
the black box on top, driver side is probably your cruise control. the other black box deals with vacuum..i think it's your EVAC tank... i keep forgetting the proper name.
don't worry, it's probably an old cracked hose that needs some TLC. get underneathe the car and trace it back.

The black box is at the bottom of the car it is to the right of the driver side wheel. It has some bolts in it, thats where I see the coolant leaking out from and it leaks a lot. I dont think its the hoses because the hoses are on the other side.

I've got a '95 GS-R & I can't follow your description of the 'black box'. I can't think of anything down there to fit the description.
When my water pump leaked, the coolant ran down & dripped off the oil pan bolts near the crank pulley. Almost made it look like it was leaking out from where the crank comes thru the lower timing cover. Obviously, I knew there wasn't any coolant down there, but the water pump is halfway up the engine on that side.
