DIY $20 rear camber kit 7G/8g
Well after installing the AGX and the pro kit, I got the bad news that both front and rear cambers were way off. So I did a little of research and came up with this DIY which actually was what RRE had done to 3g eclipse. There is an article about that in Vfaq.com as well.
tools:
17mm wrench and socket
14mm wrench and socket
rachet
this is how it looked when I started

Unbolt the 4 14mm bolts that hold the the brackets to the body. /these bolts are no longer needed/. You'll need longer bolts, because youll have washers in between the brackets and the body, placing the control arm off of the body
here is a comparison

The differnce between the bolts is not only that the old one is shorter, but its also stronger 10.9 vs. 8.8 for the new bolt. Washer on the left (1/8 of an inch) I chose them to be a little wider than what is shown in the other tutorial, because itll reduce the stress on the bolts. This is what I bought from the hardware store today, it costed me around $20.

I chose to install 6 washers on each bolt, and have another 3 for back up if Im not happy with the camber. So, just slide the washers between the bracket and the body, line them up with the hole and push the new bolt thru, and get a couple of threads in. MOve to the next untill youre finished with all four of them/per side/. This is how it should look:
