Japanese Beautiful Model

How are inofficially imported, Japanese cars for crash safety?

The Japanese are building beautiful, big luxury cars for their home market you rarely get to see outside Japan unless you live in places like New Zealand, which I happen to do. We can get cars like the Nissan Cima, Cedric, Gloria, or Laurel here, recent model years, too. I just wonder if their safety standards measure up to those of cars officially destined for foreign markets. After all, Japan isn't exactly famous for requiring much safety stuff for their home market, and has only recently begun to equip cars with Airbags and ABS for that market. How do those cars do in offset crash tests?
