I don't know how much your camber is off, but you can adjust it to a limited degree by the placement of the washers at the mounting bracket.

Sorry the delay; I had a short vacation there.
Its illegal to weld control arms in Finland, but replacing them to Porsche units would be OK...only that its out of my budget. Porsche parts can cost a lot of $$$ here.
So hasnt anyone tried to adjust the camber by using an eccentric bush???

I have abadoned the idea of using an eccentric bolt to adjust the rear camber. I dont think I need an adjustment, as my car will not be driven on track. But something needs to be done to de-camber the rear.
My friend has now this idea to raise the irs-mounts about 50mm (2"), about the same amount that he has lowered his rear. I think that should de-camber the rear tires back to stock specs. Has anyone done this before?

No problem, I keep re-reading that post as I will be doing a little tinkering on my rear suspension in the coming weeks.
