Default rebuilding jdm coilovers?

as i continue on my quest for the perfect suspension, i have encountered yet another possible problem:
how does one go about rebuilding jdm coilovers?
if they have to be sent back overseas for a simple rebuild, it seems like the result would be a LOT of downtime. any feedback on this?
thanks!

I remember someone on HT with a Civic had his Mugen NZ rebuilt because it leaked? He sent it back to King, then when he got it back, there's a "SHOWA" stamp on it. So looks like King sent the suspension back oversea for rebuild (with very short turnaround time tho).

Anyone more familiar with King care to correct or confirm it?

I just had my Zeal suspension rebuilt.

Shipped them overnight Monday afternoon to Endless USA and got them back Friday morning. The actual service only took about 2 days. Normally the shipping delays the process a few days but I paid for overnight delivery.
