Those gauges are MazdaSpeed... not hard to find in Japan - just walk in to the dealers. 
Nice to see how the Jap mod - it is the way to do it.
The guy is into drifting. This is the Japanese way to do. He has the brake and suspension mod, added the oil cooler and meter to protect overheating. Smarty modder I reckon.
The steering wheel is aimed for drifting - it is drifters signature steering wheel in Japan - every drifter has one ~
I am impressed.
EDIT: One thing confirmed. I will have the car lowered (with MS coilover) and CE28N

"ランクル８さんのホイールマッチングを参考に計算をしたところ、28mmとなりましたが、
FEEDのスペーサーが、F18mm・R23mmを考慮し、前後25mmにしました。
スペーサーのスタッドボルトが長く、純正のナットが装着出来なかったため、
貫通タイプのナットを装着しました。ちょっと見栄えが．．．
街乗り程度では、擦ることは無いですが、60km/hで大きな段差を乗り越えると
前後ともかすかにフェンダーのツメ(加工無しのため)がタイヤに当たります。
また、タイヤの動きが鈍くなりました。(特にリヤが)"

He's saying he tried using spacers by FEED to push out the wheels so they match the fender width. It caused him no problems driving around town, but at speeds above 60 km/h there was some slight rubbing.
