People say you can't adjust the rear camber of the 6G.
The original rear arms have a rod length adjuster and front ones are fixed for toe adjustments.
Like the two seen in this link:

So my thoughts are that the front and rear control arms are of the same fitments in bushes?

If so, then theoretically if I buy 4 of the rear arms I can shorten them reducing the camber?

I'm not sure if I follow your explanation of why the strut would not be forced to sit at an angle.

Unless you're talking about an ST205, there aren't any rear constant velocity joints because there isn't a rear axle. Even with a rear axle, the CV joints accommodate the strut compression, but not varying angles of installation.

Similarly, strut mounts which accommodate a bearing will handle the strut spinning in place, not twisting off to one side or another. Those bearings are meant for two-dimensional movement only.
