[edit] Nissan Engine

I have removed the section on the Nissan Pulsar engine. The Nissan engine was not used on the Camira, only on the Holden Astra, a badge engineered Nissan Pulsar. 203.39.81.92 (talk) 00:47, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Electric Windows

Camiras never had the option of power windows. Ill find the sources and alter the article accordingly. Encise 06:23, 11 December 2006 (UTC)Encise

[edit] Rewriting the article

I removed the following paragraph from the section on the final generation model:

With the JE model, Holden finally sorted most of the Camira's problems, and matched a strong multiport fuel-injected 2.0 L engine with the Camira chassis.

Interestingly the "high performance" flavour badged "SLi 2000", available only in red, was powered by the same Family II Generation II engine fitted to all other JEs, hence providing no extra performance.

The 2.0 L engine delivered 85 kW at 5200 rpm. Engine computer failure was still an issue however. Styling changes were minor from the JD, but compared to the JB, the body had a much more modern shape. The Automatic Transaxel in the JE, the Turbomatic-125C, sported a lockup-torque converter.

I am trying to ensure this article is kept within Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. If anyone can help me fix it that would be much appreciated. I am not much of an expert on Holden cars, so any help on re-writing the article would be appreciated. --Solumeiras talk 09:29, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I removed a lot of POV content or toned it down but tried to leave as much information as possible as the page has long been lean on it. I'm amazed there's this much, I hope some owners upload some photos. - Diceman 14:44, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Common problems

I have commented out this section per Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. If there was verifiable evidence of these problems attributed to a reliable source, then this section could be written again, but it looked more like a car magazine article than an encyclopedic article on them. --Solumeiras talk 11:19, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
