Default going from ritch to lean?

i have no idea what to think about this. i know my car is running rich but when i get on it the AFR gauge dives all the way into lean. at 7k the engine feels like it wants to fall on its face. since noticing this i haven't taken the car past 6500. the odd thing is the gauge reads stoitch at all time. i know all the autometer gauges bounce around and lean toward Rich at wot. i am a little nervous about running in this weekends auto cross because of this. i've ordered a wideband O2 to check everything out but i don't think it will arrive before the race. does anyone have any experience with issues like this?
the set up of the car is 99 spec JDM R using the stock p73. the gauge is a Defi D gauge and is taking its signal from the O2 line into the ECU.
any help is greatly appreciated

stock O2 sensor, which is what your gauge is running off of, is only accurate around 14.7 AFR. otherwise is gonna flop around all over the place.
