I have the E-01 (the one that has the accelerometer, etc) #1) Great unit! It is the starting point of my still raging HKS fettish. #2) The display is blue when the car is running, but either during warning mode (RPM, Voltage, Speed, etc) or during shut off countdown it will blink red. Spot of advice: get the subharness...saves about 2 hours of soldering/rewiring under the dash. Turns 15 connections into 3 splices.

I guess it is the Japanese version one that I have. I got if from a guy in Thailand so it may be. O here is another tip: like I said, I got mine from overseas and the instructions I got with it were in Japanese. I had to pay $13 to HKS USA to get them to fax me a copy of the english instructions. If you like, I can fax them to you for no charge if you need them.
