well for a daily driver you probably will hate to keep changing pads with slotted rotors slicing and dicing away at the meat of brake pads, and race pads will probably be noisy and extremely dusty.

Basically your current setup is good enough for any corolla once you add the SS lines. If you can set off your abs, that's telling you that your braking system has more than enough force to reach and exceed the maximum friction between your tires and the road.

The products your suggesting to purchase would not be of benifit to you. I've driven my dad's 01 CE without ABS and with stock everything, including rear drums, i can lock up them wheels easily. The BEST investments you can make for your corolla is keeping up with maintenece for all brake and suspension parts, as well as getting GOOD tires. Good meaning a tire with a government traction rating of AA.
