Changing Coilover Springs

Changing Coilover Springs
I want to go to some stiffer springs on my coilovers (currently 6/5 want to go 8/6). They're Tein Flex, and the springs would be the same used for the Super Drifts. My question is, is this an at home DIY job or do I need special tools and such? If not, how do I go about changing them?

for Teins only:
set the spring preload so it's snug
put a spanner wrench on the tophat (upper spring seat)
hold spanner, unscrew top nut.
Tein's upper tophats lock onto the shaft to prevent it from spinning when you try to take the nut off. sooo no special tools/skills required, other than a Tein spanner. This method is MUCH easier/faster then trying to unscrew all the crap off the bottom.
