Surely many more savvy folks have discovered this long before I have, but I am recently finding this search method incredibly valuable:

1. go to www.images.google.com
2. type in site:e9coupe.com
3. add whatever you are looking for after that
4. click whatever catches your eye, then "visit page"

Anyway, maybe basic stuff, but it has made the vast historical & informational resources of e9coupe.com much more accessible to me!

A few examples of results:

"wheels"
https://www.google.com/search?biw=1...75,cfro=1...0...1.1.64.img..0.0.0.gUgkuYfa_OI

"seats"
https://www.google.com/search?lr=&h...75,cfro=1...0...1.1.64.img..0.0.0.Yti4r9NKTHE

"gagues"
https://www.google.com/search?biw=1...75,cfro=1...0...1.1.64.img..0.0.0.ExKV3OBGoOQ

Finding pictures of parts is one thing. If only finding actual parts was so easy...!

Unfortunately, this doesn't work for attached images, which is how most of the images are hosted.

True, but I find it is still pretty helpful in getting started tracking down the right threads on a particular topic!

I agree. Google images is my go-to tool for all internet searches. Also. using the method that you mentioned is good for general text searching as well, because the forum doesn't allow you to search for 1-3 character words. For example, you can't use the forum to search for "CSL". For the most part, I always use google to search through the forum.
