Here are some search tools and sites that might resolve many of your requests:
Looking for an anime?
Google part of the title with the word "BakaBT " in front. (If you're a member there, you can browse and search on the site, otherwise, use the google trick to get to their torrents.) I generally use this for completed series. If the show has been licensed then you won't have any luck, but it's worth a try.
With newer anime you can search at NyaaTorrents (http://www.nyaa.eu/). Choose the type of file you're looking for from the drop-down menu at the top. Start general then get more specific on later searches over in the search box.
If you use IRC and XDCC (http://forums.fansub.co/index.php?topic=340.0) then you can try an @find in #NEWS. I think that's the channel on Rizon with the most bots.
Looking for Manga?
Torrents for many completed manga scanlations can also be found on BakaBT. Use the same google trick I mention above, but just use the word "Baka ": This will give you both the BakaBT links (if they exist) as well as the BakaUpdates (http://www.mangaupdates.com/) manga info page, where you can follow links to scanlators, their websites and IRC pages (if you do XDCC). Note: Many scanlators' IRC channels are on IRCHighway rather than Rizon.
Looking for J-pop?
Try searches on the following sites: http://jishaku.net/ (http://jishaku.net/), http://nipponsei.minglong.org/tracker (http://nipponsei.minglong.org/tracker) or http://www.nyaa.eu/ (http://www.nyaa.eu/).
Tokyo Toshokan (http://www.tokyotosho.info/#gsc.tab=0) is another torrent option for all of the above.
What other tricks and tools have you all picked up? I'm sure there are many sites I've missed.
