Radiatior boiling over on 99 TL

Hey guys before I start I just want to say I did a little searching on this subject before as I don't want to litter the forums with questions that have been answered in the past however I was having a hard time finding a situation that describes what I am experiencing exactly so I figured I wold just make a post about it...I currently live in Las Vegas,NV and we recently have started getting our summer weather which as you can imagine its pretty hot out the other day when going to pick up my girlfriend I had noticed that my car didn't feel normal before I bought my tl I had drove a Honda civic so since the day I bought it it has felt extremely quick and when I drove it then during the middle of the day with my outside temperature reading 109 degrees it didn't feel so quick at all I continued to attempt to get on it just trying to feel the car out and then eventually I gave up I couldn't tell if my head was just messing with me or not. Then after picking her up which was about 5 minutes away we headed to the mall about 10 minutes away from her work and when we got there when I had turned off the car I got out of it and I heard a noise coming from underneath the hood upon inspection I noticed that the radiator was boiling over and the little white part was shaking and vibrating like crazy which was the noise I heard. Later on after driving back home I filled the radiator up and made sure it was topped off then later on that night about 5 hours later after it had become dark and cooled down I left for work and being I had been used to how it drove earlier in that day slow when taking off I instantly noticed how much faster it had felt and that was what I remembered of this car, the next couple days this had continued as far as how it feels driving wether its day or night, day time it doesn't seen to quick, night time it feels fast again. Yet I have been closely monitoring the temperature guage in my car, and religiously checking under the hood of my car after each time driving it and I havnt had any problems with it boiling over then today when going to pick up my girlfriend again I drove 5 min away to her work and when I got there I shut off the car immediately got out and when I popped the hood I seen the little white piece next to the battery was slightly bubbling again however not nearly like it was the last time. Does anybody have any ideas on what this could be? Any help, any speculation anything that helps me get this fixed is much appreciated this is the only car for my family so I can't go without a vehicle so I am attempting to get this issue resolved as fast as possible while still doing some damage control thank you in advance
