Did you ever change the coolant temp sensor or bleed the system?
If not, do both and see where that gets you
And stop making new threads for the same problem. Makes it really hard to keep track of what people have already told you, what you have/haven't done, etc..

i already bled the system, no air bubbles came out only a lil antifreeze and how hard would it be to change the coolant temp sensor?

RE: my problem is still not solved
Any shade tree mechanic would change the TB, WP and tensior all at the same time. IT appears the gauge is working properly if it starts low and gradually increases. and actually goes back down. Interesting problem?!If your instrument cluster is acting weird in the rain, i would get the gauges checked out, and the temp. sensor as well. If those check out ok, them maybe do the waterpump/TB/tensior again. Maybe the wrong water pump was used.
I know in a b18a1 the water pump has 19teeth and the b17 it has 22teeth. Using the 19teeth there is a possiblilty for cativation, or the WP spinning so fast it just makes bubbles. I read about this, so i opted to use the GSR water pump in my ls/vtec build. Of course if you use a different WP you have to buy the proper belt and acces.
my .02, good luck

i asked a mechanic about ur problem. He said to change ur radiator. It is blocked and that flushing it out wouldn't help any. He said there is a problem with water circulation at higher temperatures and reccommends changing the radiator. hopefully that is helpful. good luck
