Default Suspension Adjustability

Someone school me on suspension adjustability. This is what I know thus far concerning the stock suspension components:

1. Front Camber - Not adjustable. Aftermarket arms are available.

2. Front Toe - ? Can you bring it into spec or not (significant drop). Is there anything available aftermarket?

3. Front Castor - ?

4. Rear Camber - No.

5. Rear Toe - ? Aftermarket components are available.

I'm planning on upgrading my suspension through bushings/arms etc...I just need to know what's available and what can or cannot be adjusted. Thanks for the help. I should know all of this by now, but i've been out of the game for a while. TIA.

If you're talking about a stock GS, then we can adjust all of those except the front caster/trail.

Whether you need aftermarket arms or not depends on what your future plans are. If you're going for a slight or even mild drop, you probably won't need further adjustments than what the stock setup will give you.

I would say i've lowered the car to the point where we can't get any more adjustment out of it, actually maybe not toe, we may still be able to adjust the front toe. Camber for sure can no longer be adjusted up front. I think i'm sitting at over 3 degrees.
