yep it sure will. thats exactly what you need.

I put this together when i did my ls cluster swap, and if you dont already have a decent pinout, this might be of use to you. also wanted to note whether you have a ls/gsr/or type r cluster, the wiring to the new blue integra plugs remains the same.



and this might also be helpful lol

kinda glad this post came up. Why does the VSS signal wire have to go to the ECU AND the cluster?

Any way of hooking up the gas light?

Because stock the cluster converts the rotation of the cable into an electric signal that gets sent to the ECU. For the electric VSS you have to send the signal to both ecu and cluster. It doesn't matter where you run the new wire to... if you've already done a MPFI or OBD1 conversion it would probably be easier to run the new wire to the ecu and splice it in there.

As for the gas light I think you have to get a low fuel warning sender from an Integra as the CRX/Civic's didn't come with them.
