00-03 tein ss coilovers for 6 gen max

Do you guys think it's possible to fit 00-03 tein ss coilovers on 6gen max? I'm thinking about doing this if this is possible. What do you guys think?

what kind of mod are required for this? like moving the bolt threads to fit our car, I would think you will cut them off and weld them to a 6th gen spec. is this safe?

I actually went outside to messure the distance from one bolt to the next on my car, but I forgot about the plastic covers on the engine. is too dark here to do any work like that right now. if anybody that has an intake and the plastic covers are off can go messure that for us, we will appreciated. then I can compair it to the 5th gen strut I have here and we can come up with an idea...

the 5th gen strut look small compair to the 6th gen... 6th looks way thicker. I looked at the shaft that goes through the well, that shaft is thick, so the 5th gen tein coils might be loose in the hole/ mount at the top of the well. not too sure yet about were it bolts to the tire.

little progress atleast..........
