I'm not familiar with how the bottom of your strut attaches to the A-arm. If it's like most FWD cars with a simple two-bolt arrangement, any "slop" in those two bolt holes (and sometimes they are slotted for camber adjustment) can affect camber. Same thing I said above applies, though... assemble everything pulled toward max negative camber. Then check the toe.
