Andy, what other gauges would you recommend?.
Whoops, missed this one. As stated earlier, oil pressure and oil temp, with alarm/max recall function. Boost should also have max recall, because you're unlikely to be looking that direction when going full tilt :D. Knock - the KS3 is a bit expensive I think, but the other alternatives are flawed (simple LEDs fed from a Bosch sensor on the block don't distinguish that well from background mechanical noise). I have detalarm LEDs and also the knock count from Apexi PFC, plus my engine is mechanically quiet so knock is easily spotted.

I'll take some interior shots of mine soon and post em up. My oil gauges are Prosport Defi-copies, which are cracking value at around

Ben - do you know already that the DCCD is released by pulling the handbrake up one click? ie not enough to actually put the handbrake on, but it allows you to pootle around tight turns without the diff complaining, without having to alter the setting of the rotary switch itself.

Ahh, that's makes sense - yep the diff does complain when driving slowly! - So do you pull up the handbrake and turn to Off .. so that on the dash it shows as at the bottom.

Some little jobs to do but all good ;) for interest are the digital clocks all pants? - it's on but I can't read it without shoving my head into the dash.
Dum spiro, spero
