not fast. you might be able to get it to go 120 without falling apart or blowing apart the tires. but not for long before you burn up the engine. it's just not made for racing.

0 miles per hour. The '93 Civic DX never came from the factory with a 1.7 liter engine, it was a 1.5 liter engine producing 102 HP:http://autos.msn.com/research/vip/Sp...vic&trimid=-1I do see some specs showing the '93 Civic Si with a theoretical top speed of 128 MPH, that's with a 1.6 liter @ 125 HP, so it's have to be less than that:http://www.car-videos.com/performanc...1=249&id2=0And this article shows a top speed of 109 MPH:http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/road_tests/?id=3

Crypt, the question says "2003", not "93", which does come with a 1.7L engine. Read before you try to make someone else feel dumb. To answer your question, the 1.7L non v-tech, 115hp, motor is governed at 110 mph. You can top out in 4th gear, if you remove the governer, you've got the range of all of 5th gear which should get you to at least 130-140mph. That is a guess since I have not removed my governer either.
