Hey,

Just thinking it might be a good idea to have a list of petrol station that you can buy E85 at...

so does anyone know where you can currently get it from?

Farmers Federation branded stations (tho I dont know where they are) and possibly also the OG Speed Shop

More than 2 dude, if u check the website they have a list of SAFF (SA Farmers Federation) locations around the joint, looks like thats who SAFF get their e85 from. Good to know!

Is it safe to run our cars on this fuel?

I only run 98oct ultra or v power in my car (32GTR).

Also I remember hearing Clarkson mention that in the koenigsegg , that running it on the ethenol type fuels that they were getting 50 more hp out of it . (I dont mean drag fuel by the way (E85)) Correct me if I'm wrong.

I would also expect that we would be best off getting our cars dynoed to run this stuff .

Again correct me If I'm wrong.

a) Safe? Depends on the car, and most importantly for skylines/turbos, you MUST have a tune for it (otherwise it'll run like turd)

b) e85 will get you more hp, mr donnon has posted figures that indicate 50kw improvements across the board...

c) e85 isnt as efficient per weight/volume as petrol, so the engine drinks it quicker (ala LPG) so range is reduced

d) you also need to check that the lines are going to be compatible with a rich ethanol blend. i really dont know anything about this but i recall it being mentioned - metal fuel lines wont be a problem but i think there was speculation about certain rubber compounds, the pumps longevity and the seals... best to do an in depth search for that issue
