I've decided that the only way to install my new brake discs that are 5x100 onto my 5x114 hub is to swap out the hub to 5x100. If i buy new hubs, do I need to change anything else out in order for the new hub to fit? I want to make sure that i get everything at once. Thanks!

On the Celica? I thought all Celicas were 5x100.

Unfortunately, the JDM versions are not. Well at least mine isn't.

Are you sure?
I would double check that you don't have it backwards [your kit being 5 x 114].
The ST205 is 5 x 100, including the JDM version.
All the JDM 4th and 5th gen stuff is the same.
I'm 99% sure ALL 6th gens worldwide are 5 x 100.

If you do have 5 x 114 on your car someone has already switched them most likely.
5 x 114 is a more common size, so easier to find wheels in.
If it is all you need to do is get 4 5 x 100 hubs from a Celica, and 4 wheel bearings.
Press out the wheel bearings, and press the new ones in, then press in the hubs.

Ok. i'm going to give it another try and see if i can't get the discs on there. perhaps they have been changed by the previous owner. if they still don't fit, i'll have to purchase/find the correct hubs and wheel bearings. I'll let you all know.

So i finally got my car back from the body shop and since i had time this weekend, i tried to fit the brake discs. And of course, they didn't fit. See pics.

Here are the brake discs that i ordered.

Here's how they weren't fitting. JUST off by a little bit!

I measured from the left edge of one hole to the right edge of an opposite hole on both discs.

Current:

New:

Basically, the ones on my car are closer to 5x100, than they are to 5x114.

Oh well. Hubs it is then.
