You need rear upper control arms to adjust camber. Around $350 or so. I got Kazama ones on a group buy awhile back. Just search for rear upper control arms and you'll find info.

humm after i lowerd my car the rear wheels are tilted slightly. Ive had it run like that for the pass week and everything seems ok. alignment is still good, wheels feel ok hope it dont eat away my tires too fast!! the front should be ok if i leave it alone right? i was told if i do get a camber kit and when i go adjust it i should have it at negative 1... anyone else want to comment on that?

Whiteline has some. I use them. Check PDM. ....and yeah, you can put adjustable arms on but if it's isn't out that much (you need to check it) offset bushings are fine.

Yeah, those PDM bushings are fine for most, but .75 correction isn't much. My rears were more than 1 degree off. And for $95 for a set of the PDM, if you want to get close to stock, it's usually recommended to use two kits. Get an alignment check initial s14 and see how much you need to adjust it, so you can decide if you need minor/major adjustment.

anyone know if you can combine the PDM bushings with a camber arm? I have project Silvia arms, and they look like they're close to their limit. I want some thread left in the arm for safety reasons.
