I meant take a pic of the back of the cluster,the circuit board on nthe back so i can trace it out,it needs to be a good quality pic,so plenty of light & macro please.
Next time click the little yellow button(hover over it,it will say "insert image") in the reply box & put the url in there & the pics will come up in your post.
In the mean time i found 2 diff sources that suggest your wiring colours should be as follows.
Yellow >>>>> Ignition power +12V
Black >>>>> Ground
Blue/white >>>>> Speed signal
Blue >>>>> Tacho signal
Most hondas the tacho wire is blue & it sits in the left plug on the end of the plug.
Black is also always ground.
Just check the other 2 colours u have
EDIT: just noticed u worked out how to insert pics,lol.
Hey CRXer... how come in the manual says "when NOT cutting speed limiter" then...
RED >> IG POWER
YELLOW >> RPM
BLACK >> GROUND
PURPLE >> SPEED 1 INPUT
I'm a bit confuse cuz you says...
Yellow >>>>> Ignition power +12V
Black >>>>> Ground
Blue/white >>>>> Speed signal
Blue >>>>> Tacho signal
Here's the pix i just took:

Ahhhh.......now thems the pics i wanted to see.......
Lets see where were we...........
1st......your aussie EK(assuming u dont have an import) does not have a speed limiter,so u use the diagram for "not cutting the speed limiter",simple 4 wire connection.
2nd.........the colours u quote first are the RSM wire colours & they are correct. The colours i quoted are the colours of the wires found in the car,ie cluster wires.I got them from US service manual,so they could be different for your car,slightly.
Now that we have a pic of the rear of the cluster,I will point to the pins of the connector on the pic as shown below & it is then up to you to match that pin to the corresponding plug that goes in that hole,so u will then be able to determine the correct colour of the wire for your car,if the colours i give u are incorrect.
So for instance for the speed signal wire,u will count the 11th wire from the side of the plug that goes in that hole & that will be the correct wire & so on.
Heres the pic.......

Hey CRXer.... I just connected the rsm to ECU and IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used the manual diagram and your suggestions. U've been a great help! Thnx mate!
lol,we replied almost same time,so i did all that for work for nothing.....lol
anyway good work,glad u got it going,now go get some quarter mile times for us (off road legally of course:angel:)
btw change the title of the thread to RSM install in EK1 for other people who are searching for some answers.
Thanks for the pix but i actually finished installing. You were right with the colours of the wires in the car... lucky i didnt go ahead with other colours that i found from other sites..else... i think i would've spent hundreds of $$$ to get new ECU... then that would be a buggar!! This RSM is pretty kewl but now.. i gotta muck around with the settings and get use to it. sigh....
thanks for all ur help guyz !! :)
