It is not adjustable with an A1, unless you get caster plates or offset
bushings(which are not really "adjustable," just push the control arm
forward).  Caster plates are nice, but make the car ride worse - the stock
strut bearing isolates the chassis from a lot of noise.  Do you want more
caster, or is something uneven?  If something is significantly off, like
more than .5 degree, then something is bent.  On A2s, you can shift the
subframe around a bit to change it some, but not a lot.  So I am told,
anyhow.  What are you trying to do?
