Some may know my car has been hit/etc too many times in the front and alignment is bad and can't getting any closer right now, even with camber plates. Still tracks fine and feels fine, just can't get the front camber good.

Currently: Passenger front - 2.6 camber, Driver front -0.8 camber

I'm wondering if anyone knows what the adjustment amount difference would be from stock both in and out on the FLCAs that are being sold? Just trying to get somewhere around -2.0 or -3.0 camber and be equal on both sides.

Battle Version's on Enjuku are $450. That probably would be cheaper than a frame guy.

Guess this could have went into the suspension section.

Chad, I think I asked you this before, but I don't remember. On your coilovers, is the top bolt (where it meets the spindle) oblong? The struts that were on there previously were (I think). Also, from what I recall, the Tein Flex that I use to have on the car were, too. If not, have you tried using those eccentric bolts, first? They're pretty cheap and usually offer up to 2 degrees of adjustment.

Regular bolts at the spindle.

I haven't tried the eccentric bolts. You know where they are selling them now? I haven't looked

The ones that go to +/- 2 degrees can be found on Tirerack.com for $20. Hopefully that'll work.
