Do i need camber arms after upgrading to Coils?
Planning on order coils soon and I have some question concerning do I need to get camber arms for the rear since the car is going to be sitting lower?

Unless you go really low, probably not. Both my cars were able to be in spec or very close with moderate drops.

No, not likely.
If you go way low, you may need adjustable toe arms to get the camber within specs as OE toe arms tend to bind up at extreme low ride heights. |

I'm plan in on going fairly low but not slammed. I see that Megan Racing have Camber arms and toe arm. So toe arm would be the only thing I need?

Those HPA RE toe arms get noisy and clunky real quick due to spherical rod ends. I gave mine away after 2 months of road use. Megan racing will serve better. I'd want to reduce that rear camber to under -2d for tread wear. TMS sells and eccentric bushing for the oe camber arms to adjust camber. MR also sells adjustable camber links.
