yes rob dixon's REDWRF ke25 rally car runs heavily reinforced stock struts (due to regulations) converted to coilovers, and he's lunched several sets of stub axles in the last 12-18 months
if you google "arfabuck" you will find mark from new zealand's webpage, and he has on there a big table with all sorts of different struts in toyotas. there are also guides on toymods tech section and jonny rochester's webpage about brake upgrades for later model corollas by changing the whole strut, which you may or may not find helpful

heya
in my Mazda 1300 I use RX-2 struts that have been coverted to height adjustable/coilovers using whiteline (I think) springs and the adjustable weld on collars.
I have been told that even these struts can flex under heavy braking and they are pretty solid.
To these struts I have Tarago vented discs and Camira calipers with stock drums on the back.
Its a good package, and with QFM pads I havent experienced any fade in multiple 180+ K stops. Its unboosted too.
hope that helps
