The thing with say a civic type r. It is the same as its counterpart. same reinforcements. yada yada. so no need to crash test it. thats one of the main obsticals with the skyline
and for the fact that it was tried properly then lied about. we all know the companies name.. it put a big bullseye on the skyline.

yeah i understand what your saying. i found a nice article on nico club about importing these and all the red tape bs. but yeah the civics as mentioned above have identicle us counterparts so yeah that makes sense. I just dont know why the "said" company did that and then lied about it? probably some way to pocket mass amounts of money. thanks for clearing this up for me though, i understand better whats happening with this now and its completley wrong.
the aricle im reading if anyone wants to read it:
