If the vss fails then the ecu won't get the signal that you're going faster than 20mph and therefore vtec will not work. The vss should give a direct feed to the ecu and another one to the speedo, that being the case if your vtec DID work and the cluster didn't then I'd say the cluster was broke. However in your case since the cluster and the vtec isn't working that leads to the vss. if your oil pressure was off then you would get a cel for low oil pressure.

+1 on what Kender says about vss.
If you can pull the inner speedo wire, out both ends of the cable, it needs a new cable, but Keep us posted.-Bob
