1. Have you confirmed your fans are working correctly?
2. Have you REALLY bled your cooling system to make sure there is no air? For some people, they have a hard time getting the last bit of air out on these cars.
3. Did you install the thermostat correctly? They are directional and you need the jiggle valve positioned at 12 o'clock.
4. When the car warms up, is the upper radiator hose cool or warm? is the bottom hose cool or warm?
5. Have you replaced the radiator cap?
6. Can you see the coolant flowing when you let your car warm up from idle and remove the radiator cap? (it wont move while cold), to confirm the thermostat is opening?
Use all the questions normally asked in the other threads you searched, to give us info in this thread to help out
