The most successful Olympics was Los Angeles in 1984, where NZ won eight gold medals (and a total of 11) and finished 8th on the medal table. However, since these Olympics were boycotted by the USSR and the GDR among other nations this total was arguably inflated.

The most successful other than this was Seoul in 1988 where 13 medals (including 3 gold) were won.
