Ok I am pretty sure I am going to have to buy a camber kit BUT I'm just learning about this area, trying to get a way around a whole kit seing cash flow is not good ATM. In the picture below, that IRS arm, am I able to replace them with adjustable ones, so when this vt is lowered to super lows, I can have straight rears?

I have made a few threads, but all I've been told is to spend money, or ideas that will cost 400+

No real way around it unfortunately. Unless you can find a lowered car at the wreckers that may have them for cheap.

Also, that's not the suspension arm, that's the drive shaft.

Gah, so just get a camber kit put in ? So where is this bar that I've been told about, that can be changed to adjustable, or changed to straighten the wheels? I'm confused

You don't have one, Series 2Vx onward has the control link fitted.

So you would need to fit a complete series 2 onward IRS, Big job.
On Vt-VxI, There is absolutly no camber adjustment.
Series 2 onward, Has the Toe adjustment, Wich can reduce the camber.

You will need to fit a camber kit to solve you're camber issue's, No way around it unfortunatly.
Or of corse, Fit a series 2 IRS.

Good Luck!

I've done a few of the the rear end changes to VX2 up frames on my cars and some mates cars and its not to hard. And unlike camber kits they don't need adjusting every couples thousand klm's. and for the price you'd pay for a camber kit x4 I'd grab the VX2 rear frame and if you can't install it get someone who can. Only real hard part is the bolt on the main front sub frame bushes can be a pain to undo.
