Im pretty sure they also use larger pads which will help more than using larger rotors.
I'd also be looking to use the 2-pot rears, to keep the system balanced.
Again, I saw '04 Brembo's (all around) get swapped onto an '07 TR with no modifications to the calipers or hub.

I am with you on a brake upgrade as mine can't induce the anti-lock after getting some new shoes. The only realistic option I see is just going for OT's brake package. It has good pads, rotors and lines.
