You should be able to use ur old one but the redline might be different so if ur old one tops out at 7k then u wont be able to see ur rpm

please only post one topic about the same exact subject..

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1713260

Just keep that topic, let this one die, you can keep the guage cluster, your ECU is probablly the reason, it has nothing to do with your guage cluster, either the ECU, wiring is wrong, or a sensor is not reading what it should (like the oil press. sens)
