Check your PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) valve. Sounds like you're building up too much pressure in the crankcase and opening the oil filler cap is relieving it.

Definitely blocked PCV- those 5vz/ 3vz motors are known for PCY blockage- the best solution is to remove the PCV, drill it out, replace it, and install an oil blow-by-catch-can.
