Australia and New Zealand are like chalk and cheese, that is they are very different. New Zealand is called "the landm of the long white cloud" and is more into winter sports as it is colder of course. You will enjoy NZ. Australia is huge and is hotter, unless you live in the deep south. There is so much to see and do I would not know where to start. If you can be more specific then ask again. But if you want to see it all in both countries them plan on a long holiday.

there have been 2 significant earthquakes in NZ and they were the napier earthquake in 1931 and the edgecumbe earthquake in 1987… the only information i could find on and earthquake in 1993 is this
http://www.royalsociety.org.nz/Site/publish/Journals/nzjgg/1998/17.aspx

this might be helpful too http://www.mtaspiring.school.nz/Tephra/ThewhereandwhenofNZearthquakes.html
but basically i don’t recall any major earthquake that caused any major damage to any part of the country in 1993 (however we do experience 200 earthquakes a year (thats news to me!) most are too small to be felt)
