you have to change you are radiator or coolant hoses, and do not forget to check you are overflow tank.

This depends on where its leaking from. 1st look at where the puddle is on the ground. Is it under the radiator,engine or back by the fire wall. check hoses also as radiator for the source. its hard to help without knowing where its leaking from

These Supra's are recognized for their coolant issues. Many needed cylinder heads replaced. This was Toyota's 1st go round at building a P.O.S.

Take it to a Toyota dealer and have them Diagnose it, you may wind up spending tons of money trying to crack a coolant leak only to learn you need a new Cylinder head.

Good Luck

If No observable leak its most likely the head gasket leaking which could lead to the cylinder head needing resurfacing.
Try putting in Barr's stop leak. I have had good success with this product.
