Is the base of an ADA toilet the same size as the standard toilet or I guess the real question is would I have to change the hole in the floor for the ADA toilet?

Assuming you have a standard toilet now, it will bolt on the same way in the same position. ADA are just taller floor to seat. Most toilets are 12 inches from the back wall to the center of the drain. Older ones, before 1940 or so were 14 inches and I have come across a few odd ones that are 9 inches.

Standard height is 15" but you can get comfort height or ADA models which are 17" high. The standard toilet rough in dimension is 12", which means the outlet of the toilet at the floor is 12" from the unfinished wall, but they do make 10" and 14" rough in models. The width really depends on the type of toilet you get but remember International Plumbing Code requires 15" from the center of the toilet to the nearest wall. Hope that helps.

Kits are available to make sure the toilet flange is level with the new floor. These kits are adjustable because of the differences in thickness of flooring and material, any subflooring laid down, grout, infloor heating etc. . Ideally, you want to seat the toilet on the wax gasket, and attach the mounting bolts, and have the toilet flat on the finished floor. These kits are easy to find and use.
