How do you store your Type R?

I just put my Type R in storage. Do you do anything special for winter storage?

Re: How do you store your Type R? (ITR764)

I highly suggest NOT starting it once per week. Think about it. One start after 3 months will not be nearly as much wear and tear as starting it weekly. After a week the start will be hard on the car. The start after 3 months will be only a little harder than one of those weekly starts.

Disconnect the battery, cover it and fill it up.
