I could be wrong, but isn't ^this^ thinking incorrect. It would make more sense to replace the USDM unit with the JDM unit because the JDM unit was designed for crashes. When you start cutting away at the USDM unit you actually have no idea what you are doing and taking out. Now, I understand that the beam is only good for VERY slow speed crashes, but I am just curious if I am right or not.
