Cheers @1randomkiwi

 

 

Whilst BP are changing some sites from 98 to 95, I thought I\'d whip up a quick Chc list of the sites who will continue to supply 98 RON.

Mods sticky?

Feel free to post updates in here/PM me. I\'ll keep this updated.

Confirmed

-Dallington

-Papanui Road

-Rolleston

-Fendalton

-Hoon Hay (Corner Sparks and Hoon Hay rds)

-Mairehau As long as there's demand there.

-Edgeware

-Sockburn

- Rangiora

- NPD Port Hills Road (100 RON and self service)

- NPD Moorhouse Ave (100 RON)

- NPD Rolleston (100 RON)

- NPD Wrigram (100 RON)

- NPD Sockburn

- NPD Harewood

- NPD Ohoka

Alright guys, if in doubt, check here: http://www.bpfinder.co.nz/ it shows all the stations in Chc and as of 26/09/2016 the list is current with what the website lists.

Bush Inn/Riccarton

- totally realised I can edit your posts lol.

That\'s handy for you. I was under the impression that the BP up there wasn\'t selling 98 anymore (as per another members comment)

EDIT: Just checked BPs website, it lists 95 ron.

Went in to Bush Inn yesterday and can confirm it doesnt sell 98 anymore.

Car has generally been running like shite, hesitation and power feels a bit down. Thought id change back to 98 before attempting upper engine cleaner, knock sensor replacement, )2 etc etc

Sure enough car feels a lot better.

Think its not quite right and needs some TLC but sure as hell a lot better.

Hi all, my first post on here. As my Forester 2002 XT runs really bad on anything less than 98, I\'m certainly looking out for all the 98 RON outlets. Edgware - Sherborne St - is one I\'ve used a few times. Mostly go to Redcliffs as we live in Mt Pleasant. I took my wagon to Stubaru a while back to find out why it didn\'t run well all the time. Stu put a hand-held diagnostics computer on it and went for a blat. Under full throttle, the knock sensor activated and timing was retarded by up to 19 deg, with injectors at 70 duty. No wonder it ran like crap! The concerning thing is, NZ fuels use Toluene to boost the octane, which evaporates very quickly. So depending how long the gas sits in the tanks at the station, it may not even be 98 at all!

My project for next year is to set up a water injection system to compensate for our bad fuel...some of the worst in the world I\'ve heard. :(

As someone who used to live in Mt Pleasant, I suggest going to Dallington BP. The Redcliffs BP was always priced higher when I went there.

Instead of going for a water injection system, why don\'t you call up STM or NZEFI and see if they can reflash your ECU. In the long run it would be a much better solution.

Drove past the Edgeware BP this afternoon, and it looks like it's out of commission. Diggers everywhere, pumps gone, forecourt torn up, and fully fenced. Google says 'permanently closed'. The much smaller BP around the corner on Innes road is still going though, still has 98, and looking pretty busy.

The Edgeware BP is going to be expanding but not sure how long it will be out of commission for. But it will reopen, bigger not sure if better.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
