    Default ST 162 Question

    Hey all
    Okay i just bought a 1988 st162 celica. It needs the front passenger side ?hub? (the bit the drive shaft goes through and the studs come out of) replacing!
    Now the reason i am confused is that i was planning on stripping the parts from my friends 19?86? celica but i have just realised that his is five stud and mine is four!
    So My question is If i take both the five stud front hubs from my friends wreck and replace my four stud hubs with them will they bolt up? And will the existing four stud celica driveshafts fit the five stud hubs?
    Also is there any thing i don't know as in are the five stud ones crap so i try and find another fours stud hub?
    Which st162s are four stud cos i would rather just find a four stud hub for the passenger side than go and replace all the hubs! Especially since i have some four stud mags but no five stud wheels at all
    Cheers

    If you're going to go 5 stud do all four corners. else just get another set of front hubs.
    Most of the ST162 guys usually upgrade to the 5 stud.

    ST: 3S-FE, 4 stud
    SX: 3S-GE, 5 stud
