The camber arms that Nicole had are $200 (plus shipping). They come with Energy Suspension bushings and an external grease fitting in order to lubricate them while on the car (installed). They are available in 2 versions (SLAMMED and 2-4 degrees). These have been tested on 11 and 12 second Ralliarts. They have also seen track time at Sebring and Palm Beach. These things work. If you want them, let me know. I will post a picture later.
I'm going to continue to work with Ron. I think he can bring a few more parts to the table and would like to open the doors for him to bring some stuff to the table for us.
I'm hoping to go the the tracks next friday to see what my car can do.

Ok, so I think I get the way the SPC ones work: Large slider groove for big adjustments, eccentric for fine adjusting.
But what about these threaded ones? Maybe I'm not seeing the pictures well enough, but is there just one moving section, so you have to unbolt from the control arm, adjust, re-install, measure again; or is it more like an inner tie rod with a floating central threaded section and a jam-nut on one side (or both, even)?

I also ordered the Toe Links. It's on the way now too. i'm hoping to finish the suspension next week and alignment.
He is waiting on his batch of the rear brace and I will update everyone when I have more information.

Also, if you have to disconnect it from the wheel hub to adjust it, then whats the point of the lock nut? It's not going to magically loosen over time. The attachment points on the chassis and the hub will prevent the parts from turning/tightening/loosening.

this makes me sad. but realistically, I guess it's ok, because how often are you going to be mucking about with the rear camber? most of the time it'll be set it and forget it. It just makes it less convenient to adjust.

I'd like to see the same basic design, but adjustable without disconnecting either end. Like how tie rod ends can be adjusted without disconnecting them. That's the ~only~ thing I don't like about these, but realisticly, I don't think it'd stop me from buying them
