DC2/I have a couple of problems here>>>
I have a 95 gsr. About 2 months ago I was driving to the track then I pull up to a parking lot to buy something to drink, then my car to smoking from the bottom of the car, Im like damn there goes the headgasket.
Symptoms:
Fluctuating in car temperature
Car dies when AC is on when I give it a small rev.
Car dies when Ac is on and im turning and pressing the brake.
The container where the coolant goes is always empty but has fluid in the radiator.
Another question, I have an oil leak somewhere but I have no clue where its coming from, my thoughts was from the oil pan but then how does it leak on the upper areas.
Final Question is it suppose to have a perfectly square hole on the tranny near the flywheel.
Help me out please.

change your thermostat and clean the idle control valve thats mounted on the bottom of the intake manifold to see if that fixes your problems.
what area is the oil coming from? any engine codes?

can't really tell, but I've had a leak under my car before as well.....traced it back to my oil pan. The bolts were coming lose and it was time to replace the gasket. As for your stalling problems and fluctuating gauges, cant help you out there. How many miles are on the car?

Funny. I have the same idle and coolant problem like you. Make sure theres no air bubbles in the coolant system and definatly check the compression. Also if your headgasket is leaking or blown it will usually blow bubbles in the coolant overflow tank when the car is running, another clue is the oil and coolant somtimes mix making a milkshake looking fluid.
