Upgrade Brake Master Cylinder

Getting stainless lines should help reduce the compliance in your hydraulic system.. it's not much, but it does help the brake response. You could also get a master cilinder brace. That stops the master cilinder from moving around and has a similar effect as stainless lines.
Making sure that everything around the calipers is in tiptop shape is also an important measure (slider pins should be straight and completely smooth + lubricated). I'm completely convinced by the mintex pads on my 360 that they should perform pretty well on an ae86 too. Last trackday I drove the damn volvo without rear brakes (badly worn out linings in the drumbrakes) and it still stopped without a problem all day long (be it a bit unstable).
