You will need the correct e85 pump and fuel hose.
A retune will be required, like dd says you won't get far out of a stock tank as you use a fair bit more e85 over 98ron. It does however make better power, there's a few of us here running e85. There's also the option of flex fuel if your ecu's supports it which means you can have the car tuned for e85 and 98ron and the sensor will even work with a blen of the two and adjust the tune to suit

I see on United's site there's a station in Gosford that sells E85. E85 can sit in a tank for months if it's a sealed tank -- all Australia utes from 1979? already come with sealed tank
Yeah, converting EFI for E85 is all that, larger injectors may be needed. Full re-tune is not needed, apply a factor for E85 (which means reprogramming the ECU). Fuel economy will go down, but if you have a turbo it can take more boost and thus make more power

Decided to go with Holden Fantale Orange. Just got my hands on some dragway pro's too..
Not sure about the E85 as I want it to be a well used street car. On that topic, has anyone done the conversion to E85, and if so, what's involved? Beefing up the fuel system, tank lining, re-tune..anything else? Also need to check out the availability on E85 in my area. (I'm on the Central Coast btw) How long can E85 sit in the tank for? Any info would be much appreciated guys.

Looks like a nice project. That reminds me, RaJay was the name of a famous Turbo company here back in the day
