  1. I have a blog already presealover.wordpress.com
  2. the name was changed back to presealover right after i sold the cefiro It's a H number 'automatic' but not a white one.. this is metallic green, but since i had a white one before, this time its gonna be deep black pearl (VW euro paint).. and undergoing another restoration.. restoration involves throwing away the dvd player/ reverse camera and installing a simple audio or casette player to make it look like an absolute 90's car No I'm not gonna throw away so, if anyone wants to exchange a double din audio only player for my DVD then i'd exchange..(because i hate touch displays)... also hoping to change the alloy wheels.. currently the ones i have are black.. i want silver... so anyone who wants black alloys, i have and will give for a cheap price.. this is also a limited edition with armrests, tweeters in the arm panels etc. with a better greyish fabric design that the previous ones... il post pics after the restoration with (before and after pics).. the estimated project delivery date would be end of January because im using Agile methodology for the project..
  3. I have black Alloys (Size 14) and if anyone is interested in exchanging their Silver alloys with mine, let me know.. 

  4. Guys I have a pioneer DVD/Reverse Camera setup.. Since I never was a fan of this, if anyone is willing to exchange the DVD player with a double din audio player, let me know..I just need a double din audio player

      But those original audios came with typical JDM FM range and a cassette player, didn't they?.

      yeah, im just going to put a double din audio player without the touch display which is a new one, similar to what i had in my previous car.. i mean the one with buttons :) found a used one from someone for a low price so im selling my dvd player for a lower price too :) 

  5. Guys if the shift in the gear between P and D is rough (like you  need to put additional effort from your hand to put it to D from P like something is stuck inside), but the shift from D to the 1,2 or any other gear is smooth and no need a big effort, does that mean there is a problem in the gear box or the gear shift pole?

      Could be the inhibitor switch, a not so difficult cheap fix to replace or repair, but catastrophic failure if ignored. Is it on a hill?

      its the gear cable mate.. so what the mechanic said was the gear cable should be turned towards the other side a bit which will fix the issue.. so from the spanner he moved the gear cable a bit and the issue went.. now there is only a slight roughness.. and said thats the maximum the gear cable can be pulled... not on the hill.. it was in the flat road.

      may be you can replace it with a new one down the line of your restoration project :D

      Glad my hunch was correct :D 

  6. I have done some motoring Karma in my previous birth that I have to suffer finding a Presea in this birth... sigh

      If I'm not wrong, earlier you said the reward was 50K?

      What happened to the other30K? You spent on travelling? ?

    1. PerfMad

      check Ravi kelaniya.. he is a busy man though.. He is well known for Nissan's. You may get some leads on preseas as well..

      Yeah ravi is the one who maintained my previous presea.. i dont think he has time to come mate... 

  9. buy a PRESEA
  10. Guys, anyone knows any CROWS from RMV? What i plan to do is to get the crow to give me a list of 'H' number preseas in the country, and find those mofo's and offer them a price to sell their cars.. So any CROW contact please???

      I don't wanna steal another man's woman for my happiness mate

    4. Crosswind

      Let's do like this. 

      1. Buy the old presea

      2. Give it to me for a day

      3. I'll crash it and give it to you

      Then it will be a restoration project. You can fix armrests, paddlebrakes, coilovers and everything

  11. as far as I know the only difference is the front grille.. cj1 is the older version and cj2 is the facelift.. once again fuel is the same.. bottom line, fuel figures of pulsar, presea, fb14 are the same and no difference..
  12. I have spent 50k on transport and mechanic costs inspecting Presea's all around the country for the past month upto today. And I'm getting tired of it. But do I settle for less? No, the hunt continues for an H' number automatic...

      >Um...looking at your wall I think many have already drawn that conclusion already... the folk that still hang out with you? They are doing that out of kindness

      LMAO :D 

      >ammatasiri  talk about cross-forum love affairs

      The dude @Hyaenidae mentioned my real name also. I know most people know my name, but now everyone knows my name after that. Revealing one's identity is not done out of good humour mate

      >its like talking to a brick wall 

      Wahahahahah :D on a daily basis at least a minimum of 5 people tell me this and make that suggestion, even my parents :D It's like loving one girl and living with another. Same here, even if buy another car I will always want to go back to a Presea, the love is eternal.. The devil got into my head and he is the one who made the decision of selling my previous. Now the devil is out and I got my senses back.

       >mentioned my real name also

      Didn't know you wanted to keep it a secret, (I know that is a weak excuse) I apologize... But if you take a look at that thread you'll see your name was mentioned even before I mentioned your last name so I thought it isn't a big deal

    4. matroska

      matroska

      out of curiosity did a search on the particular forum and well in all honesty Hyanidae has been 'bumping' the thread so maybe the man actually wants to help :D 

  13. well I've been driving presea's for 5 years now 1st car also presea, 2nd car also presea and now again looking for a presea as the 4th car.. the GA15DE engine is a rich sweetheart that comes in the presea as well.. there are enough of spare parts to be found (If not i wouldnt go for the presea).. and maintainence cost is also low and just keep 100,000/- as spare money and get all the suspension and minor repairs done after buying the car and it will give you no trouble for the next 2 years... I would recommend you the presea over the fb14 or pulsar, because presea is more spacious, more classy and elegant for a boy.. I have gone to all corners of the country, (hills and offroad) with 5 people in the car and full AC and had no problems at all.. there is a fb group names 'Nissan Presea', join that too, you will get more insights in that group... like i said fuel consumption of that is around col traffic is 7.5, if not 7.. it wont go below 7 though... average driving its 8 and in highway its 11..
  14. here here ? Yes, I have used the GA15DE engine, and the maximum you would get around col traffic is 7.5, if not 7.. it wont go below 7 though... average driving its 8 and in highway its 11..
  15. Is there any hybrid car I can borrow on Saturday from someone??... I can pay for the rent not on KM basis, but just for the day for the usage.. Anyone willing to lend theirs???

  16. Anyone heading towards Matara/ Mirissa/ Sinharaja side in the weekend? ??? Need to hitchhike as I’m heading to ‘Katuwana’ to inspect a car..Is there a train i could take to go to Katuwana or a nearby city?

      depends.. there is a possibility it may do better than 1.5 since it requires less effort to get to a certain speed isn't it ?

    3. PreseaLover

      PreseaLover

      yeah 2 1.8l owners said the same, that it does better than the 1.5.. 1 person had both the 1.5 and 1.8 version.. 

    4. PerfMad

      PerfMad

      well ideally it should be.. not sure how practical it is in city limit traffic.. but outstation defa. And since you mainly use it on weekends it should give you quite satisfying fuel figures :D 

  17. Guys, since there is a SR18 version engine also in preseas, im wondering whether it will be a good move to get the sr18 version... What are the other nissan cars that consist of the SR18 engine in sri lanka? Since im hoping to keep my next presea for my life I wanna make sure, I will easily be able to source a SR18 engine from Sri Lanka when needed... Any advice on this? Also cant the GA15 parts be used at all for this version?.. Would there be a significant difference in fuel figures comparing to the GA15DE?
  18. I've been seeing a Presea advertised in the quick site for all these years for 3 times now, in fact i went to inspect the car 4 years back and didnt buy it.. all 3 times it was advertised, I see that the odomoter is tampered with... does every tom dick and harry who buys cars does this now when they want to sell?.. shik

      This happened to one of my relation who bought a 2000 Corolla 121. He saw the ad on paper abt the car and inspected the car. When he was ready to purchase,someone else had bought it for around 2.7mil. Then he chased the buyer and bought it back for 2.77million.When he purchased it, it was clocked around 78000-79000 kms. When I saw the car, it was in good condition in perfect shape, but seemed a bit worn like. About using for around 4 years,he sold it for 3.1 million and the mileage was around 110k as I remember. One day when I met him after sale he said.”Malli man ahu unane!!!” According to him the car had done nearly 300k kms and the seller had tampered it. He noticed when he saw a service sticker mentioning the mileage over 300k kms. When he sold it, the car had done closer to 350k kms. Anyway, I didn’t give him any trouble.

      But look how the cars are abused here in SL??‍♂️??‍♂️??‍♂️

      Even a famous person I know in education field also tampered the mileage from 270k kms to 125k kms....funny thing is, he is a very religious person. Told me it cost him only rs.2000.???

  19. Guys, do you think buying from a car sale can be a risk than buying from an individual even though it is inspected by a mechanic? cuz after my cefiro incident of buying from a car sale, im very reluctant to buy from sales as those salesmen can hide issues and sell the car

    1. matroska

      matroska

      well this is where inspection comes into place. The sale guys as you mentioned are better at the game than an individual. However some times the guy selling his 'Personally used car' is also a buyya  who has mastered the art of beautifying and selling crap-heaps.

      You could have used a professional inspection company, no way a mechanic can recommend a car buy just beating around it and looking at the engine dipsticks / caps etc.

      Also car sales keep certain cars in rented houses/ company buildings etc and to get rid of them!

    3. Crosswind

      Crosswind

      In your case, its not the seller thats the problem. Its the buyer.

  20. I cant believe no one wants to sell their preseas. its just a simple requirement.. an 'H' number automatic Presea and that's it.. is this too much to ask for?

      @dantoddd if yours were an 'H' number I wouldnt hesitate, as my name starts with 'H', the requirement is mandatory for me. 

  21. Was gonna buy a Presea this week and advanced the lady owner.. today she returns the advance to me and says she changed her mind.. guys help me out find a H number auto presea please.

  22. with what happened with my cefiro, im right now facing a phobia to buy any car... Davy do you think if i buy the car I will be able to fix this lights flickering issue? Im afraid that i wont be able to fix this and go through another loss again... im afraid to buy a car that has a mileage of over 200k again thinking that the engine will seize again.. has anybody gone through a situation like this? what should i do?
  23. Ah right thanks davy
  24. guys, I went to inspect a presea.. everything was fine apart from the fact that the indicators in the meterboard, the headlights, the a/c lights and everything were dimming and blinking slightly. Would this be due to a faulty alternator? can we fix the alternator or should we replace the alternator?
  25. It has begun..... The Hunt! #PreseaHunter

      1.4mil for the Cefiro... for the Presea 1.6.. Max - 1.7 if the condition is top, but should be an H number automatic though. cuz my real name starts with H and I cant set my mind to buy anything other than a H number
