Default Rear camber adjuster bolts

Should a Newage STI have camber adjustment bolts on the rear, or is it just at the front?

Does depend on if your dropping it really low and need to keep the rubber from rubbing the arches I always thought . I may be wrong just what I've heard .

As said just the fronts as standard but if you are lowering the car with coilovers or just lowering springs you will need them on the rear to keep the geometry correct. A full alignment is advisable after altering any suspension parts.
After fitting my Tein coilovers had my alignment done by Chemix autocentre Stourbridge top guys.

Is this worth it on STi shocks and Prodrive springs? I'm looking to refurb my shocks within the next month or so, then go for alignment afterwards. Is there anything to gain by adding camber bolts whilst I'm at it?

Had to fit them on my 05 STI when i had Prodrive springs as the rear was way out without them.

Yep will certainly help with rear camber into corners, you would be able to carry more speed through a corner as apposed to without.
