Hi I am new to the world of Supra's, mainly dealt with Nissans and Mitsu's. I have a problem as the title says... I rev the accel and I can feel a very fine, aerosol like mist coming for the back of the engine, now i have found I believe is radiator fluid leaking from somewhere under the engine,, Is the fan a constant speed fan or does it increase speed with engine revving? I checked for the usual signs of a BHG, to orig owner told me he replaced it, but you know how that goes... I was just seeing if anybody ever heard of that or had similiar stories so i have a good starting point. Thanks in advance.

I would guess the small 90 degree coolant elbow on the back of the head, on the passenger side.
Course, it could also be the heater core hoses, either the one coming out of the top of the head, or the one on the drivers side.

If you don't have one, you can rent a coolant pressure tester kit from AutoZone, advance, or oreillys. That'll show you exactly where your leak is.
Check your EGR vacuum modulator. Oftentimes people find the hose attached to the bottom has slid off the hardline. This can give you a mist of coolant. You should also check your EGR cooler and the hoses that attach to the head right next to it.

Uh? There should be no coolant in that part of the car at all. There is also no hoses what so ever attached to the EGR cooler plate.
Coolant often shows up in places it shouldn't be with BHGs. OP mentioned BHG and coolant leading me to believe that he might have reason to suspect a BHG. Sorry about the vagueness.
