Unhappy 1994 Civic

Hello,
I have purchased a used 1994 Civic LX (1.5L) with 88,XXX miles on it. THe car starts stron but seems to be out of power when I am on a little up slope and trying to accelerate from 60 mph. The transmission also is sfifting very rough and the car vibrates while braking.
What do you guys suggest I do to fix these problems ald also other maintenance stuff to bring the car to good shape.
Thanks

if it vibrates possibly changing your motor mounts may net you more torque and more engine control.
