ABSOLUTELY the best way.... fly to NRT you get in around 4:30 Pm...get the j/s that night that leaves usually at 10 pm. you never clear customs, just go to the old NWA club area just a few feet to the gate...I think gate 25 that you meet the NRT guys and the crew for the flight....

While your waiting you can go to the day room hotel just down from Macdonalds in the same area...Its $35 for five hours, get a few hours rest, shower and your set.

Just email the ramp a couple days ahead and SFS ops to tell them you are coming and they take care of you.
