You probably don't need a LCA? Can't you add shims to the existing one (there is already a factory shim in there)
You'll also need adjustable toe links

I don't think the GTS has adjustable LCAs, only GT4 models. You will need either adjustable camber plates and/or LCAs to achieve more than -2 deg rear camber.

I have the RSS Tarmac Series LCAs and adjustable camber plates and have maybe 1mm shim with -3deg rear camber so most adjustment is on the camber plates. Although my car is also lowered so that also adds a bit of camber. You'll also need the adjustable rear toe arms which RSS also sell. But lots of good options like Tarret, Elephant Racing, SPL, etc., or even regular OEM GT3 LCAs if you don't want the monoball.

Here's the kit I bought:

Rear camber is limited by the Toe Links. Change those for the Tarrett ones and then adj your camber. IF that isn't enough then you can add the split rear control arms. You will need to change the Toe Links in either scenario..
