yes you can get through this without airtools... I'm not sure I can help you now since you'll be doing it in the morning and I have to work.
What I do recommend you do is research the installation at: http://www.scoobymods.com/
what type of suspension do you have? If it's Teins then you'll probably find it at scoobymods. If it's something else the installation if VERY similar if not the same!
I would recommend if you are going to purchase tools for tomorrow... you should pick up a 1/2" drive breaker bar (not to long and not to short). The reason being is because the longer the shaft the more torque you'll get on the bolts. However if the shaft is to long then you won't be able to use it for this project. Also since you'll be purchasing tools... you'll also need to get 1/2" drive sockets.
Make sure you have WD40 or penatrating oil (or equivalent) to make the job easier for braking the bolts off from the strut.
I would start as early as possible and make sure to eat a good breakfast (not to much other wise you'll be a lazy ***!)
You'll also need 12mm & 14mm sockets (can be 3/8" drive)
Good luck!
