ABS
Transmission / AWD info
Fuel, Manifold, etc pressure
Average / Instant MPG.

They just are not easy to monitor. If you can get some input and create an algorithm yourself you can monitor it.
Way interesting and tempting. Can you post in a separate thread details, photos etc? Update: found some of your info but a separate thread still would be appreciated i.e. with more photos, links, and maybe a link to your Pi software.
