You shouldn't need one.

Just do an alignment.

If you have heavy stereo in the trunk, then you do have negative cambe in the rear. The shop charge me $40 dollars each side to modify the rear axle carrier. There are two bolts connect the rear shock to the wheel hub. They make the bolt hole from this shape ( ) to this shape (______), so you can adjust the camber. for me 80 dollars is better then $200 camber kit or unevent wear

I know that I asked this 6 months ago (hint). I did a 1.8 drop w/o one and everything is peachy. Tyres are not showing and uneven wear, and the car drives good and strait.
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.
