I am storing my GSR for the winter this weekend and i was wondering what i should do to it before i let it sit in the garage for 4 months? is there some kind of winterization procedure i need to follow or can i just let it sit in the garage as is?

 

I suggest over-inflating the tires and disconnecting the battery.

 

im just curious as to why u would store a gsr and not drive it in the winter... its not like its some exotic car

 

i live in montreal meaning alot of salt and rocks on the ground when the snow and ice starts....in addition my car is about 1 1/2 inches of the ground acting as a snow plower.
its not an exotic car but have you seen what salt and rocks can do to a integra? lethal stuff and i want my car to have no part of that, so i bought a piece of **** sunbird, let that take the beating )

 

Fill up the gas tank till it almost overflows, frost and condensation inside the walls of the tank can occur. Just make sure its really full and it wont happen.

A few things you should take into consideration. Change your oil and filter because old oil can build up acids. Be sure to add that "dry gas" additive. THat will prevent buildup in your gas tank. And lastly, if u have jack stands for all four corners, use em. If u have steelies, use those too. Dont ruin ur rims.

 

you can also put baking soda on a plate and put it in your car, this helps obsorb the smell of a garage,

 

wow good ideas. ill remember it if i every go anywhere where i have to 'store' my car
