Very Important Questions

I am a newbie here. Always remember, though, if you wanna add more HP, break out the wing and the stickers(forget about actual performance parts...lol).
Seriously though. I went on the performance forum first, the one at the top, as all good newbies should. However, it didn't really answer my questions about my new car, a 1993 civic lx sedan d15b7 automatic.
What was its 0-60, 0-100, quarter-mile and top speed, especially it being non-vtec? how does that compare with a comprable d16z6? I already know horsepower figures; they're on the website here.
Can it break 12 seconds 0-60 and 19 in the quarter? will it go at least 105 mph? I establish certain bare perfomance requirements. Remember, it's bone stock. I can't find any websites with this specific sedan in mind(i've been online 4 hours). If you could help it would be appreciated. It has 168k on it already; i want to go 500k though. Are civics really reliable as everyone says? I don't drive my car fast or abuse it; I just want to know real stats for a bone stock base automatic because i cant find them on the site here.
Thanks.

Do some research at autotrader.com - its slow. Yes civic's are very reliable if you follow the maintenance schedule & do proper repairs on time. IMO dont bother dumping money into your current engine, do a swap.

I have the same motor d15b7 in my 93 hatch... i find that Intake helps a lot... it's certainly not fast... but it's quite fun to drive if you ask me.... i wouldn't know the numbers though cuz I haven't really tested it.. and even if i did they'd be different from yours since your's is a sedan and mine's a hatch...

Whats up man. Hope this helps. Youe car can brake the 19sec in the 1/4 mile. That is of course at sea level. A rough estimate is 18.2-18.6 in the quarter mile for your stock car. I would say mid 11s for 0-60 mph.

I found something on your engine.

"After 175,000 miles, the suspension is shot, the brakes likewise, and the tired interior smells like unwashed feet. But damned if we didn't get a ringer engine. In baseline testing, the little D15B7 pulled the car to a 16.7 in the quarter mile, which seems strange; the car ran 17s stock. A dyno pull affirmed our suspicions: Our engine, with supposedly 102 crank horsepower, laid 95 hp to the wheels. All we can figure is massive carbon deposits on the pistons upped the compression"

Thats the page.

Your engine here tested 17s, but on a hatchback and automatic which automatically lowers some numbers.
