Just want to know what i should do after GTR has been in storage for 12 mths...

:change oil over

:drain petrol/replace

change the oil before starting it. when starting it crank it a few times n then shut it off before it fires. do this a few times to get some oil pmped around before letting it fire n at idle rpm.

id drain the fuel but a lot of people say it can stay pretty good in that period. particularly if the tank was full and therefore minimal air in there to interact with.

if it hasn't been rolled every 3 weeks then itl need new tyres as they will be flat spotted.

otherwise id take it very easy for about 50km/30 mins until it warms up nicely and every little nook n cranny has fluid.

IS your GTR in storage because of the weather? It may be a good idea if you're really worried about your vehicle to get a mechanic in and give it a proper tune up just to make sure eveyrthing is okay after coming out of the cold. At the same time, besides changing the oil and tires like what @jjman suggested, just make sure that you give the car a bit of time to warm up before taking it out of storage for a spin. Have fun!
