Did you use the screw near the inlet manifold to get all the air out of the water system ?

no i bled it by leaving the rad cap off and revved until the bubbles were all gone, may try that bleed screw,

That's part of the reason it over heated so fast in you.
Put the cap on + run for a few minutes until the coolant get to a little warm.
Then open that screw "the 1 with the sticker "dont open when hot" a bit ,until you see the bubbles coming out .

What's the rad cap rated to ?

i used a 34 row oil cooler is around 250 euro + fittings and pipes prob around
500 euro all it...it saves blowing a engine..works perfect on a 1jz engine..i know if i had it on my rb engine it would have saved alot of the damage too.
