Also what are you guys using/recommend for timing equipment?

i use gloves for better grip overall
as for suits - you do not normally see guys doing lapping days with suits - its more casual than anything.. however though in most semi-serious events for racing / time trial or what not where guys are pushing harder they will wear suits
as for timing equipment - you can buy an actual lap timer ($300+ or)
or can get a bluetooth external GPS and pair it up to your phone with the proper app (iphone = harry lap timer, android = racechrono)
