Default Non-Adjustable Camber

I was talking with my brother, mom, stepdad, and girlfriend about her car and had mentioned that my car (1995 Accord EX coupe) had non-adjustable camber. They (excluding my girlfriend) proceeded to tell me I was stupid and it was because of my 'rigged suspension' (coilovers that niether of the three are familiar with) and how my brother worked at a Honda dealership for a year and therefore knew more than me about my own car.

Please tell me I'm not crazy and I know what I'm talking about.

Camber isnt adjustable unless you get an adjustable upper ball joint or a camber kit.

^This.

Caster is somewhat adjustable and toe is. Camber is not.
On the rear you can somewhat ghetto fabulously adjust camber with spacers and longer bolts on the rear, but on the front it requires a bit more work.

I picked up a cheaper one on eBay because I was in a bind at the time and they told me I was rigging my cars suspension and that I was stupid. Thank you for confirming that I DO in fact know what I'm talking about lol.

Only person that comes near my car with a tool besides me is my father, my grandfather, and the guys at the tire shop who mount and balance my tires and align my car lol.
