Post your build parts

I figured this would not only be helpful to me but also to anyone else that is getting into the modification and tuning of their Volvos!
Feel free to add anything that I missed.

This could be used to list any staged/dream build, or just to let people know how you built your Volvo.

Brakes/Suspension

Shocks:

I'm sure I've missed a lot of other important components but this will do for a start.

Hopefully I'm not the only one that wants to see what sort of power and reliability people have gotten out of these things and how they went about getting to that point.

Personally I like looking through the pictures to see purdy new parts and the shops and garages where the work is performed. But, lists are ok I guess. Videos of big smokey burnouts are better.
