Sounds to me like a bad headgasket it its running that hot all the time. Does your oil come out with any coolant in it? Or does your coolant keep disappearing slowly?

There's never any coolant in my oil and my coolant slowly disappears. I'm going to fix it this summer/fall so I can actually start modifying the car next summer without having to worry about everything else breaking...haha.

You left out that little detail that the coolant is disappearing. Swammy says you will be doing a head gasket in the near future!

I didnt even notice that I forgot that part...haha. Yeah, I will be doing a whole bunch of stuff like the headgasket, timing, water pump, all belts, valve cover, gaskets and all that other stuff. I think I'm going to go to LSE to have it done there, they gave me a really good price so far.

That sounds like the headgasket. We can do a leakdown test to make sure, then fix the problem. Also if you want headstuds that would be the time to install them, no extra labor charge ontop of the normal price to install ARPs with a headgasket job.

Run a coolant bleed-down test and a cylinder compression test. One thing I had happen to an import car in the past was the radiator cap gasket swelled where it met the top of the radiator neck. With it swelled it was a very tight fit in the bore of the neck. The cap would try to relieve a little pressure but then get stuck open slightly. No pressure or lower pressure in the coolant system causes the boiling point to drop off drastically and boil over. You might check that along with the other suggestions...
