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?

using two sets of adjustable control arm will allow you to adjust camber, but by doing so your affecting the rear track. btw tilting the strut more wont have any negative affects to the rear, its a strut not a shock, it was built with the purpose in mind of having loads come at it in whatever which way. besides the spring works to hold the weight of the car, many celica's with worn broken struts seem to have to stay in place until you disassemble the mounting then it drops and falls apart, some so bad the shaft actually falls out. it might cause the damper to have a little more stiction, but it will also improve the camber curve ever so slightly.

why not use a crash bolt or camber bolt? those seem to work pretty well provided you impact it on there good.
