Last week the radiator went on my subaru sti, so I've had a new one. I looked under the bonnet today and my coolant resovoir is completely empty once again? Could it be because the engine was so starved? I have topped it up and now it seems fine and the coolant level hasn't moved?

Probably just an air pocket but keep an eye on it.

Could just be that the coolant system wasn't bled fully after the new rad was fitted . Airlocks are fairly common if care isn't taken when refilling the coolant systems , so it could just be that the air has now worked its way out of the system .

 keep a eye on the levels and temp gauge ,maybe check that all heater matrix and top and bottom rad hoses are getting hot when the fans have cut in . This would check that there's not any other airlocks in the system stopping coolant flow .
