Nope, because it's not really a problem. I swapped a teg cluster in my crx and it reads exactly the same.

Two options:

Use a DMM to read pure voltage and figure out how many gallons that means you have.

or

Install a DA Integra low fuel sensor and use that to tell you when you actually get low.

The gauge is always consistent for me so I have no problem just leaving it to its business.

You could try krousdb's digital gauge method using a multimeter. You just have to calibrate by filling your tank in small increments at first. And never fill past the maximum resistance reading.

so with the DA's sensor it would be more acturate?

It won't be more accurate, it will just have a light the tells you when you get down to 1 gallon left or something.

I was worried at first. I guess it's like the first really disgusting anime you watch, you feel bad about it, and then by episode 8 she murders all the little kids in the orphanage and you're laughing.

I've been looking for someone to trade with, but to no avail.
I could drop the HF fuel tank out of the parts HF I have, but it would be a GRIP to ship that b***h.
