Is there any way to even out the rear camber and stay SCCA C Street legal?

even out to what, side to side, or bring back to zero?

if it's side to side you can try shifting the rear cross member but that's waaaayyy too much work.

For Street classes, you are allowed to set camber and toe anywhere you like, so long it is in the manufacturer's specified range.

You are not allowed to cut the car apart to do it though and to be honest, I question the legality of crash-bolts on the fronts if they put you out of range.

See Rule 13.8.B on page 75 of the rule book for a reference.

I don't need the rules. I need to understand this car. I'm not new to auto-x or the rules just this car.
Is there a way for me to even out the camber from one side to the other that is within the rules of street. The only solutions I have found are not legal. Example lower control arms.

loosen the 4 bolts holding the crossmember to the chassis then try to shift it

but effect will be microscopic..

how much of a variance in camber do you have, and is it done with weight in the trunk and passenger in the car?

-0.8 drivers side and -1.6 passenger side with someone in the drivers seat, no spare tire and 1/4 tank of gas.

Yeah like 7thgear said the best you can do is try and shift the actual crossmember. There are no other adjustments to be made. It's pretty easy to loosen the crossmember, just the four bolts.
