Once you've gotten ahold of a manual (maybe more difficult with a Japanese cabinet), and especially schematics, it essentially becomes a really big model kit, and with great online resources (the <a href="http://forums.klov.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php" rel="nofollow">klov</a> and <a href="http://arcadecontrols.com/aarcade.htm" rel="nofollow">byoac</a> forums are particularly good for restoration info and questions), there are usually others out there that know the answers to whatever questions may come up. Jeff, thanks! Your site has already been a lot of help, and an inspiration for my own documentation. Curtis, I say go for it.
