Default 5x100 PCD to 5x114 conversion

I'm looking to change the 5 x 100 front hubs (at least) on my 2002 GCA WRX to 5 x 114 hubs.


Main reasons are that I am after the bigger bearings and I have some 18" wheels with 114 fitting that I can use that cover my brakes.


I'm seeing conflicting responses online on what needs changing all together, can anyone point me in the right direction please?


What do I need in total for the conversion?


Thanks

I think at the least your need hubs, discs, shock absorber.
Sure widetrack may even have different control arms and roll bar.
Surely be easier to get the correct wheels.

Big bearings would be of benefit with it being a rally car.


My APs have bells for 100 and 114 so no issue with them.


Not very successful with getting the right wheels to fit the APs with the required ET, 18" seem to go quite quick second hand so better to use what I do have and benefit from the upgrade anyway.


Thanks
