replace the thermostat, check the fans are comming on. make sure if you rev the engine the hoses aren't colapsing. new radiator cap?

you changed the thermostat?

was the system bled properly as well?

and if all these things seem okay, then it's time to do a leakdown test...you may have a hairline fracture in your head/block from the heat or the hg may be on its way out from overheating- if I remember correctly, the vienta had the 3vz and they are prone to head gasket problems
