Electro Gauges + Si vs VTEC Gauges

Sup guys, I need to know this info and I know you guys are the ones to ask...

I got a 93 Si (non-electroluminescent) .. I plan to get a JDM h22 someday, and I'd like to upgrade to electro gauges.. my question is, will the Prelude VTEC gauges plug right into my 93 Si? I know on my own i'll have to remember that redline is 6500 Rpms.. but will it still work is my question.. thanks ya.

no it will not work what you need is the gauges and the dash board wireing harness and the little gray box that go's in
back of the tweater in the driver's side. Ive done the swap in my 94 lude s model so if you have any ? let me know

I know its going to take modification, but my question is will a VTEC Gauge Cluster with the Redline of 8k work fine in my Si that redlines at 6.5 K? Or are there calibration differences and such?

Ive got a 1993 Vtec JDM lude, and the speedo packed in, ive now got the speedo and rev counter from a 2.3 lude installed instead.
Just means that you have to rev through the red line on the rev counter.
Revs and speed are still accurate with the rev limiter cutting in at 8000 as normal.
the panel (rev counter + speedo) just plugged straight in job done.

It should work fine the cluster i have is from an si modle and i have swap in a 93 vtec usdm motor in my car. Its really not that hard to do at all just get the dash board wire harness it plugs right up to the main harness on both side's of the car left and right side. You could you the harness from a si or vtec 94-96 and
then just get the little box. I was lucky i found the box in a junk yard for 20 bucks

Can you give a detail description of how to get the wiring harness for the 94+ preludes. I might be going to the junk yard and I need a description so, I know what I am looking for.
Thanks

the thing that your looking for looks just like the harness that's in your car now that plung into the guages that powere your speedo
the temp and the fuel. The only thing that's differnt is the side that hooks up and power's the speedo part in your car now that's
it. So when you do the swap you have to unplung every thing speedo temp fuel etc if there's any thing ? e-mail me or post i would be glad to help.

Was there a model with the Electro guages and the 4WS? The 4WS guage cluster in my car has a place for the 4WS inicator lamp.
