dude, spring compressors don't cost much (and places like autozone typically rent them for like 10 bucks a day.) I think the Craftsman spring compressors are something like $20. It's just a couple pieces of metal and a long bolt, really.
Do keep in mind that springs hold a LOT of tension and you probably don't want that tension surprising your "buddy" when you unbolt the end caps.
just my $0.02

Give me a call
I work in a shop and we have a wall mounted spring compressor. Just call me and I can tell you how much. Just take the struts off of the car bring them and the springs over and I'll swap them out. You will need an alignment after you remove/replace the struts. I can do that also. 972-780-2501. Duncanville Ask for Dwight. I can give you the prices when you call, I have no control of them but I do have some influence GMK

I have to disagree about the tension...(RS suspension in new body style is the same as WRX right?) personally ive done a honda spring swap and that pressure was ridiculous which needed a spring compressor and an RS swap with an air wrench and two guys leaning on the strut mount. no problems with surprises...
