How to adjust Camber?

I will be AutoXing this year and wanted to know what kind of camber adjustments you can get out of stock setup on evo 8 MR and how you would do it.

The front has cam bolts installed factory for camber adjustment. You'll be able to get enough out of the stock configuration even without lowering the car that you probably won't need anything additional in front. The rear I researched when I lowered my car but can't remember explicitly what is available for additional camber.

Just posted this on another thread. By anyway, here goes:
There are two camber setting you can have -1Deg and -2Deg. This is set by the bolt holding the front damper to the hub assembly. There are two bolts on each damper and the top one has an arrow stamped on its head. Arrow IN = -1Deg, OUT = -2Deg.

That's IN = towards engine, OUT = towards wheel.

Anything else, you'll need camber plates. Which will make an annoynig noise after a while.

For the rear, there are camber adjusting bolts where the lower arm attaches to the car. If you clean all the dirt and stuff off, you should see a mark and some graduated lines in a radial pattern. Just turn this is adjust your rear camber. I don't really know the range however. Just try it.

Oh, when you adjust the camber, toe usually change. So adjust camber then adjust your toe.
