To be honest, I wouldn't bother with any of the above suggested ideas. Things like RA60 brakes will provide a mild improvement over any of the Corolla hardware, but are still well short of desirable. Don't bother with any less than about 280mm, with some kind of reasonable calipers to match - you will enjoy having decent brakes more than you might think!

280mm seems like overkill for a 2T-G! I think RA60 brakes with decent pads will be more than sufficient, and doesn't require upgrading to much larger wheels.
