I just put on a homemade rear camber kit, which i stole the directions from vfaqs.com, and put it on my car, not too bad of an install, took a little more time that i thought because the springs and arms were in the way of the bolts, so i had to basically unbolt everything -_-

my problem is that, i put the camber correction kit on but i dont see any adjustment in the wheel angle, i used 5 washers by the way, is it necessary to goto a shop and have the alignment and camber corrected in order to set my wheels straight? or should my wheels automatically be adjusted a little?

any input would be great, thanks ;]
 
If you installed the washers correctly then you just changed your camber by a significant amount. Five washers will make a big difference. Yes you must take your car and get it aligned now, by changing your camber you also just changed your toe, and toe being out of spec will eat away your tires in a hurry.

Note, I can add and remove those washers without taking anything apart other then the bolts to the control arm brackets they go behind. There are not springs or arms blocking the brackets, its an easy 30 minute job for both sides. Are you sure they are in the right place?

im sure they are in the right place,

as for the install, i had limited number of tools and the torque wrench would not fit in the upper bolts of the connector because the frame was in the way, thats why i had to take the connector arm off, but like i said, i had limited amount of tools,
