this engine (D16Z6) was found in the 92-95 civic si's.. SOHC vtec..
imo, it is not a huge upgrade from your engine, but good 'stock replacement' option. most of them are pretty high mileage these days and if you are going this direction, the D16Y8 is found in the 96-00 Civic si which pumps a whopping 2more hp that the Z6.
if you are really going to go to the performance side.. a B series engine would be ideal. even the base B18b would be better than the D16z6,
the D16z6 are not worth much, i sold mine, just the engine for 200 bucks.. and it took me a long time to sell it
