If you lower it, the rear camber will increase a bit. Too much camber will reduce your tyres contact patch on the road, and prevent you from getting all your power down to the ground if you have lots.

How much camber can you pull out with adjustable rear arms?

Having real trouble with getting power to the ground and was thinkin about raising it up about 30mm to try get at least half the contact patch on the road, but will this make that much difference?

to get rid of camber, look up on google "slotting 510 crossmember"
and you should find a few articles on it.

you can "slot" the mounting points on a 510 crossmember to adjust the camber, then you'd need to tack weld the washer in place to stop it from moving.
Slotting is the cheap way to DIY.

there are much better ways of doing it, such as the datsport Kit.
but they cost a bit.
Or you could machine your own up if you had the time/tools
