GSR front brakes on EK question

I've been reading a bunch of the archived stuff, but I didn't see anyone mention if swapping the GSR knuckles onto an EK for the front brake conversion will result in any kind of camber problems or negative effects on the suspension geometry? I know the GSR knuckles are taller, but is it dramatic enough to have any adverse effects on handling?

I got the gsr knukles and you will need a camber kit cause the longer knuckles *** up the camber. \ ....... / <-----this will be your front wheels.

Alright, just making sure. After the installation of the gsr knuckles onto my ek, my front camber looks like this: /-------\ That's the opposite of your diagram. Did you end up having positive camber? Mine has bad negative camber and there's a tire rubbing like squealing/squeaking sound when I turn that I haven't been able to pinpoint yet...anybody else with any experience regarding this feel free to drop some knowledge!
