Why do you want to go to -1.5 on the rear? no point doing it unless you understand cause and effect!

He's saying he used front aftermarket cambers on the rear I suspect.

Take a look at Whiteline Automotive - performance handling and suspension products. car spring coil shock damper swaybar sway bar anti-sway bush bushes australia australian whiteline automotive performance road holding turn-in camber caster toe in vehicle hot 4 v8 and under the parts list they give you various options for the spec you require.

Others may have done it for no more reason than following other sheep who have done it......maybe they are the same that claim the ALK reduces front end lift (I merely ask before I get flamed!)...or maybe that have reached that setup on their own cars, with all the other settings and parts on it as ACHIEVING what they want.

I'm not saying you don't need to, just be sure you do, use the rear -ve to balance under/oversteer, if it oversteers, add some, if it understeers no point making it worse by adding rear grip!

I needed extra clearance on the rear arches.... (even after attacking them with a slitting disc :eek:), but it also gave me a completely neutral road car that barely manages to oversteer on track under full power, in tight corners.

That's fine for me and my driving style, wouldn't altering the rear toe would allow the grip at rear to be modified aiding turn-in anyway ?
