Great forum, looks nice and clean, great advice available - but it's tough to find at times. My $0.02 on how it can be improved:
 
search results display
  1. a go to latest post button/link would be very helpful, and should cut down the number of page loads required.
 
relevancy as the default for results sorting
  1. I think this is much worse than 'sort by last post date' - if you are searching for a manufacturer or user's posts far too many old and irrelevant threads come up inc. discontinued models and old, already fixed problems
 
Search this thread
  1. is desperately in need of the advanced search button! the review/impressions threads are so large it's difficult to isolate the actual reviews from the questions and other chat.
  2. at the very least it needs a search by specific user's posts option.
 
Search this forum
  1. a check box to search by thread titles only would be awesome - it makes it much easier to find discussions about a specific product or brand.

Agreed. I started a suggestion thread with this in mind as well.
