Default Any specal tools needed when upgrading the valve train?

Is this a do it myself job? I´ve installed myself the JRSC and stuff listed in my sign. Can I install the Crower valve springs myself? I´ve bought me the original dealer service book of the ITR at my local dealer. Do I need those special tools, which are listed, or can I do this with state of the art tools? I think I´ve to adjust the valves new, correct? Which kind of tool do I ned for the adjusting?

oops...... that´s gonna be lots of work for winter-time. I have to install the Haltech E6K too....the electrial manuals are *10³ compared to the Apexi VAFC´s ones. damn!

Tools needed for the adjustment...
-Feeler gauge
-10mm wrench with flat blade screwdriver built in... (see picture. red handle)

If you are upgrading the valve train you will need a spring compressor. Different ones are available... if you have the head off of the car… you will need one style... if the head is on the car a different one is used.
