Just converted to NA-T.

Using all turbo electronics in the engine bay, and using the -89 wiring harness in a -89 car.

The speedomoter does not work now. I know the tachometer shouldnt work, but what about the speedometer?

NEXT problem: The cluster lights do not work, is this because they arnt compatible with the turbo harness? Or not related?

do you have the speedo cables hooked up? The speedometer is mechanically driven.

As far as i know, yes it is hooked up.

I will check it again tonight. Its been raining like HELL the parst few days.

Thats really the only answer i needed. I wasnt 100% sure its mechanically driven

Yep, check your speedo cable. Thats all it could be. Lights must be something else too, shouldn't have been affected by your harness swap.

For the tach, you probably know, but just change the board out of a turbo one into your tach. Works fine then. Mine does.
