If you wanna get real carzy and plan on not moving the car at all you need to put the car up on jack stands or get something to keep the tires from getting flat-spots. I would also put something in the exhaust so critters dont climb inside, maybe some mothballs under the hood or in the trunk, keeps animals away. I dont drive my Z in the winter, but since I plan on starting it and driving it around the block everyonce in a while I dont have to go to the extremes that I just posted.
Thanks for your help.

The vehicle will be stored inside and also I will not be moving it or starting it at all for about 4 months. Is there anyway that i can avoid using a battery tender. Does disconnecting the battery do any harm to the vehicle or its system? I just find disconnecting it much easier and cheaper...lol.
