that's not a good idea. nsx has ugly prelude style dash. i know some nsx owners already tried to swap s2000 cluster and steering wheel into their nsx.
It's all about taste. Nothing is bad, nothing is good.

This caught my interest. I found the pinouts for both the RSX and S2000 cluster. It should be close to a matter of matching the pin functions. I'll look for a used RSX cluster. If I find a cheap one, I'll def try it

The S2000 dash is amazing because it's simple and not packed with lots of useless stuff. It's your choice of course, but i would never ever change one of the most perfect car interiors money can buy.

Its not amazing because any true sports car has an oil pressure gauge and the s2k cluster lacks it. It only comes with a 'sedan like' water temp and fuel. WEAK! All else is good and I like.

VW Dash Swaps work because they are all pretty similar in size and VW uses similar parts across all their models. I did a dash swap in my old GTi. VW, Audi, Porsche are all the same company. A bunch of parts are interchangeable (headlights, front ends, brakes, dashes, wheels, seats, engines, trannys, etc.).

The S2000 is a pretty unique car for Honda. It doesn't share parts with any other model (even the little punk kids that steal our seats and steering wheels for their civics dont get them to fit right) so this would be a really custom job.

^ I agree... with most of this.

On same generation models there all built relatively the same. From generation to generation they vary a lot. The swap from mk4-mk2 is popular but not easy.

The rest I completely agree with, its possible but it will be very custom.

So the solution for a missing oil pressure gauge is to swap the S2000 dash with an RSX dash? Wouldn't it be easier to simply add an oil pressure gauge?
