i think the front are 4 inch? or 6? i forgot but just take a screw out and pull the cover off and you'll see it.
if you want to fit 6 by 9's without cutting the parcel tray, then you could get those 6x9 boxes, strathfield sells them for like 30 dollars each from what i recall, give or take a few more bucks.
if your fitting a pod filter, you make a hole in the piping thing and shove the plug in there. your engine would still run without it, not much difference. i just got mine sent from melbourne from anthony kellam and it doesn't make any noticeable difference.
i only got my airfilter cause the airbox wouldn't fit in the engine bay, without moving some stuff around. also, cops don't really like them either.
i've seen some corolla's running 17's, but with uber low profiles, i'd go for the 16

im not sure about ae92/3's, but ae82's have 2 front speakers so im assuming you'd have 2 as well. If you're serious about the stereo, get an aftermarket HU and 6.5" splits at the front.
And yes 17" rims have been easily put on ae92/3's, just dont lower it too much or you'll have to roll out your guards

Just personal prefference here, but DON'T PUT 17s ON YOUR ROLLA! Not only do the wheels 2 big, but they make your breaks look freekin' tiny. I'd say 16s MAX... and your breaks are gonna look pretty small under those anyway.
