Been awhile.
I did end up finishing the cluster swap and got it working almost perfectly for the most part.
For some reason I'm having issues uploading videos here but if you guys don't mind scrolling a bit I have videos of it in action on my Instagram @chance.cc -
like faaaaarrrr down. I post a lot lol.
I've since parted out and sold my car, moved onto a CTSV platform.
Sorry if the guide is a little difficult to read. Glad to see it helped some of you guys get it done though. It's a very cool swap once you figure out the wiring part and getting the fitment correct.

I found making a bracket was a pain, although for a more experienced fabricator im sure its a walk in the park. Not sure if OP ever finished his or not. I got the wiring mostly done. I just have to clean up the harness i made, and wire in the dash converter.
ill probably run into more issues, but i think Im over the hill. Im doing a lot of other stuff at the moment so im not sure how far ill make it on this. Hopefully i can finish it up soon-ish.

might be worth giving them a call.

Decided to remake this thread so you guys wouldn't have to sift through pages of rambling to get what you needed to know.
here's the pinout for an Evo 8 WITH ACD.
I can't tell you if it's the same for non ACD evos. Be wary.
This is the evo harness with the two plugins connected to the evo cluster.

Thanks for the detailed write up. I have a friend that is parting out an S2000 so i was thinking of doing this swap. Did anyone ever get it all working right?
Also the cluster he has is a S2k AP2 from an 06.I know the wiring is different but the instructions are on the ktuned site. Did you sort out all the issues? Is everything working correctly? I also want to try to make mine plug and play. Where did you find the connectors?

Its an acquired taste for sure. I'm not a huge fan of the stock cluster, but the digital S2K cluster has its pros and cons. With that being said, the car has the stock cluster in it currently. A CD7 would be ideal but I don't feel like wiring in new sensors.
