    The Takai seach is good, I've used it previously, but I dont believe it really adresses the problem that the thread author mentioned. It only amounts to a 'basic' search on the forums where we dont have advanced options like searchiing in a single forum section or searchin thread titles only, etc., so you still end up with a mountain of results that are unrelated.

    Can we add more 3 letter words to the engine as mentioned above? Being able to use a word like 'arm' or 'oil' would mean more acurate search results. I've personllay given up on some searches when 3 letter words were removed and I ended up with over 20 pages of results, the Takai searches were not able to help in these instances as without the advanced search options you end up with heaps of results anyway...
