E10 vs 98RON

[pete30nz]

Has anyone any experience with the 100 octane in nz south island

A mate puts NPD 100octane in his 2009 VE LS2 6.0 and he loves it. Normally cheaper than the BP 98 octane.

Won’t be an LS2 if it’s a 2009 mate, the LS2 only came out in the 1st of the ve hsv’s (clubsport,gts,senator etc)up to early 2008 before they went to the LS3 if it’s an ss or calais it’s most likely an L76

It's a 2009 sports wagon SSV, they say it's a LS2 6.0ltr. either way it loves the 100 octane

Yea definitely not an LS2 mate if it has afm it’s an L76 or if not an L98, regardless of engine I wish we got that npd 100 up here in the north island

I'd be surprised if it E85 that stuff is rare as. I don't know any place in Tasmania to get it and I imagine NZ would be similar.

Yes you can get it in nz but $$$ and only a few places have it . But you are probably right about it not being e85 just by the price

Can get E85 at almost all United Petroleum outlets in SA. I have 4 United servo's within 5kms of me.

We have United's all over Tas but unless they have Flex in Hobart there is no where in Tas that I've seen it and I have travelled the whole state. Launceston doesn't have it.
