Just thought I'd share the before and after measurements. Basic modification list: Tein S-Tech, stock shocks, 1.5" drop, and Whiteline rear toe kit (actually adjusts camber as well). I pulled the locating pin from the front strut mount when I swapped the springs and I installed the assembled front shock/spring assembly to full positive before I drove it to the alignment rack. I have a feeling the front camber is uneven left to right because I've removed the front subframe once to install the Whiteline front swaybar.
I left the right front camber alone (since it was at maximum range anyway) and adjusted the left front camber to full negative and I that's as close as both sides could get; It'll have to do unless I want to shift the lower subframe over. I tried to get the rear camber in the middle of the spec (-1.2 degrees I think), but at that camber, I didn't have enough toe adjustment to get into spec; the eccentric was at it's toe out maximum. So I had to lose some camber to get toe correct as it's more critical for tire wear.
If I had adjustable upper and lower arms on the rear, I have no doubt I could get both toe and camber right down the middle, but I was happy being within the spec window. The Whiteline arm replaces the lower arm in the rear suspension, other kits replace the upper one but I find those harder to adjust and lock.
