Default Rewiring: Non-stock way.?

Alright, I found a 91 crx with no rust, but its been completely stripped of wiring. What im looking for is how to do some of the body wiring.

Im going to try something new and run the engine off of megasquirt and spark. So the engine will run completely seperate of anything else on the car.

What would i need to run the brake lights, turn signals, reverse lights, headlights? Can i use some of the stock relays to run those?

Also, wil the guage cluster work if there is no stock ecu in the car? Basically just the tach and speedo, possibly the fuel and temp. If not, looks like ill be building a cluster.

To start it, im thinking just keyed aftermarket ignition with push button start, there easy and cheap so why not.

I know this isnt the easiest way of going about rewiring a car, it would probably be cheaper and easier to just find a totalled SI and rewire, but I dont want to do it. I can already have my fuel management integrated into the car, and im sure ill lose a considerable amount of weight with less wires being ran throughout the car. This will mainly be a track car, but i want it street legal to still have it driveable.

Any help is much appreciated.

sorry for the long *** post.

I have an 89' crx that I am completely reworking the wiring harness for use with a race dash and many other things.. Best bet is to go to hondahookup.com and download the manual for your car and look at the schematics and go from there..

Well, ive rewired a few cars so i know the wiring in the 4th gens pretty well. The only real thing i dont know is if the cluster has anythign to do with the ecu or not.
