You would be way out if the bolts did not align, there is a free play in bolts to allow for adjustment. For D2 S8 camber should be -15' to -1°15' on each side so the range is 1 ° or 60' but the difference between 2 sides should be less than 30' or 0.5° so you could have one side -20' and the other side -1°10' and they would both be within spec individually but the difference between both sides would be 50' so way over limit. As little as 1mm movement of subframe sideways can cause you to be out of specification and 2.5mm or more will certainly make it out of spec unless it was wrong before and you were lucky enough to move it right direction to correct it.
