Definitely thermostat related, it's either been left out or it's stuck open. Either way it's allowing the coolant through to the rad constantly which is why it isn't holding temperature. Don't hammer it until it's sorted.

Weird.
But I suppose you could have got unlucky with your cooler stat being a lemon. Was it a Zero Sports 71C one? I had one fitted to my STi 5 the other month and it's fine. (Also had one on my previous 93 WRX and that was fine too).
But as Dan said, the logical thing would be to reinstate the original one (that way you are ruling the stat out). Then see what happens...

Be like me - g/f and wife free. It's really liberating. Can do what the **** you like without any semblance of ballache/'guilt', etc.
And yes, I've experienced a long-term (7yrs) relationship too, so have seen both sides.
Just employ ladies of the night (should that be your bag) for any 'needs' you might have.......
LOL!!!
