So I finally got the alignment done today after changing the rear links and cam bolts as well as installing the $20 rear camber mod (I used 5 washers). I am running Eibach pro kit springs and Tokico HP struts.
After the alignment the numbers are as follows:
FRONT
Camber: L -1.0 // R -1.5 Toe: L 0.01 // R 0.01
REAR:
Camber: L -0.2 // R -0.3 Toe: L 0.0 // R -0.01 Thrust: 0.01
I would say those are pretty good numbers with the exception of the front camber. As we all know, the camber on our car, front and back, is non-adjustable, but why would their be such a significant difference between the left and right side of the car? Anyone have any ideas?

Because when you park your ass in the car on the left side and it loads the suspension, the camber evens out.
Since I can adjust the camber on the front end of my car, the shop I use will grab a guy about my size and sit him in the driver's seat while they are taking readings. When they get the car set up like it needs to be, they hand me a print out without the guy in the seat.
I watch them do the alignment, so I don't worry about it though.
