just got this s13 going, after wrecking it, and starts up ,kinda ok, i threw a new throttle on there, i think the timing is off by alot, cuz the idle wants to die, but it sits at like 600 rpm, wierd? anyhow, the temp is cool till i actually drive it. When i drive it the temp starts rising like crazy.

Keep in mind i emptyed the motor of its coolent before taking the front end off. Also The idle is fucked up? Could it be something with the Thermostat, its a cheapy napa, but i never had a problem with it before untill now. Also i have electric fans But again i have never had this problem before? Any Suggestions??? help???

Have you purged the air from the cooling system? I would detail how to do it, but it's been said a million times before on zilvia so give it a search. It sounds like you have an air bubble blocking the coolant flow.
