I know people have been waiting for this for a while so I figured it’s time to post it.
I’ve still have to get the Cruise Control wired up correctly but I will post that once it’s figured out. It will not effect the driving of the car.
First and foremost, this write up covers wiring on a 92-93 DA Integra, there are some ECU connections made and I have listed ODB1 colors. I DO NOT know if 90-91 Integras have the same cluster wiring so those of you with the 90-91 Integras, you’ll have to get in there and see.
I will not be covering dash or cluster removal in this write up, there is enough info out there so just search it.
With the information provided this swap can be performed on any ODB Acura/Honda providing you can cluster pin outs for YOUR model and year.
Lastly, this write up is for the AP1 S2000 cluster, what’s the difference between the 2, see the pictures below.
AP1
AP2
As you can see the fuel and engine temp on the AP2 are curved where as on the AP1 they are straight. The AP2 wiring is different too, the pin outs I posted have both AP1 and AP2 on them.
The next post will start to cover the parts and tools required.
The next post will start to cover the parts and tools required.
You need the following tools:
Wire strippers
Soldering Iron and solder
Heat Shrink
Heat Gun
Ring Terminal for the ECT gauge.
Some 18ga wire for wiring the ECT gauge.
Parts Needed:
AP1 S2000 Cluster and cluster plugs (you NEED the plugs) - Search the classifieds of various boards (JDMR, HT, etc), Ebay, S2Ki.com is good too.
Electronic Vehicle Speed Sensor from a 94-01 Integra - I bought mine for $50 from Teknotik. Try a junker. If you have a D series, use one from a 92-95 Civic.
We’ll start with the Speedhealer and Electronic VSS.
Here is the wiring diagram for the E-VSS
The VSS is on top of the transmission, follow the speedo cable from the firewall down to locate it. Push down on the cable and pull up to remove it (if you didn’t when you pulled out your cluster).
There is a bolt holding it in place, remove it, remove the VSS and replace it with the E-VSS.
Wiring For the Speedohealer
Speedhealer V4 Wiring
Red -------- Ignition Power (I suggest the accessory ports in the fuse box)
Black -------- Chassis Ground
Green ------- Blue/White - Connector C Pin 3 On S2000 Cluster Harness
White ------- Yellow/White Signal Wire On Electronic Vehicle Speed Sensor
Modifry Engine Coolant Temperature Converter Wiring
White -------- Red/White or Yellow Blue - ECU Connector D Pin 13
Green ---------- Yellow/Green Connector C Pin 7 on the S2000 Cluster Harness
Yellow --------- D19 on the ECU (ODB1, will get color tomorrow)
Brown --------- Ground For Alarm Output (to hook up a sounder or LED or both)
Gray ----------- Alarm Output Goes To Alarm’s Negative
Black --------- Chassis Ground
That about wraps up the wiring side of the install.
The next part is fabbing mounts and a plate to block off the gaps in the dash. This is something I am still working on (would you believe I’m having a hell of a time locating a piece of carbon fiber?)
Here’s some pictures of the rough install and some early videos when I first did the swap, speedo wasn’t working at the time.
What about using some Duramix 4040 (or the 3M replacement stuff, 3M bought them) to fill in the gaps. When I did the jdm itr cluster in my da, I used about a 1/2" off the end of the dc bezel, then cut enought off the back of the da bezel. Taped the piece of the dc one to the cluster, put the da bezel back on and tacked them together in the corners with duramix. Then took the whole piece out, put masking tape over the holes from the back side and filled in the gaps from the front. There is a lot of sanding involved to get it to all curve equally and look oem. But it’s worth it in the end.
The thing about the duramix is that it’s plastic weld. It bonds to the bezels perfectly. Then do a mist coat of some texture spray and cover it with SEM black plastic paint and your good to go. Messing with fiberglass is messy as shit and would be a pain in the ass to do on that bezel.
search carbon fiber. we sell it in sheets and its pretty solid.
actually if you want to order it email me red.integra@gmail.com i’ll hook it up for you. its NOT as flashy as the stuff in the pics you posted, but i think i can score you a sheet 12x12 for like 13 bones
