I suggest and aqualung titan series regulator as well as a back-inflation over the jacket-style bouyancy compensator. I would also get the suunto combo analog gauges. I live in New England which is near Canada and I am fine with my Henderson Flex-Fit 7mm wetsuit at 100 feet. I would also suggest 5mm gloves over 7 mm b/c you can still move in them.
A suggestion with the leg cramps: Get nice sturdy fins and take long slow strokes over faster shorter and wuicker strokes. It requires less effort and may also prevent those leg cramps you are talking about.
Good luck!
Edit: Back inflation keeps body more horizontal underwater promoting streamlining and it also gives you a wider range of motion.
