I used a spring compressor on the front and rear to compress everything enough to roll the strut out from under the fenders.

The rear is a royal PITA.

The good news is that coilovers go back in much easier as you can wait until they are in place to raise the spring collar.

If you want to do it right, set the desired ride height first using the spring collars, then get final adjustment of corner weights at a good race shop before getting alignment.

Personally, I wouldn't go to all this trouble without putting in camber plates or GT3lower arms in the front to fix the camber problems this car has.
