Speedo works, then it does, then it does

What the heck is going on here. (1994 US-spec 9000 aero manual trans NON TCS)
Last night I installed my stage 4 ecu (after a bad core led me on a wild goose chase) It's FREAKING AWESOME, but that's not why I am posting.
This morning I drove to work, no problem. This afternoon I come out start driving and notice the speedo not doing anything, the tach is working fine, all the other gauges appear to be working (except the speedo and mpg functions on the EDU). The car was also stuck in baseboost, which SUCKS with a new ECU int he car.
I got home, then had to run out for something, get in, start it up and leave my driveway to have the speedo working normally, car boosting normally as well. I go in the shop, pick up my packages and come out, hop in and start driving home, back to the no speedo, base boost problem.
There were no other noticable driveablity issues, the car boosted fine, but only to about 8psi (where the baseboost is currently). The speedo (when it's not working) doesn't move at all regardless of engine speed, wheel speed or anyhting else.
I recently replaced the clutch, could the connection be flaky? I was recently in behind the gauges through the dash top, could that be the cause? I would have thought a bad gauge connection would not lead to baseboost.
Please tell me something simple and cheap :D
I have yet to perform any tests or check any components. Please let me know what I should be looking at.
