I guess your coilovers dont have adjustable camber plates?
What brand/model coilovers did you get? --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

are you sure they are FULL coilovers? Because most all the coilovers offered for our cars have adjustable top mounts (i think the US Tein SS's are the only ones that dont)
Is the camber too much for you or uneven? -------------------- 1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

I believe only the front have the camber plates. the rears don't.
I have the blue EZ series which don't have them at all and just used a camber wedge kit on the rear. somewhat evened it out again. --------------------  *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |

I actually just realized that he never specified what end the camber issue was on.
so yeah, only ksport and I believe some BC's have rear camber adjustment. Easiest solutions to adjsut rear camber: Camber Bolts or Elongate the top strut hole. -------------------- 1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

any time you lower the car it changes the camber angle, requiring adjustable camber on the mounts. Unless you want to use shims but most people I've talked to don't recommend shims.
