if you can lock up the front wheels (or engage ABS) in the dry using your current setup, changing to a more aggressive pad isn't going to improve your stopping distance unless you change tires as well..
i think the setup you are going with is great, i used to have it as well.. i'm just saying don't expect miracles.. it isn't going to be that different from stock
the stock pads/rotors lasted to around 75k on my 00 zx3 as well. they were fine up to the wear indicators.. i autoX the car and drove fairly hard..
on a random note if i recall correctly P51 used the stock brakes on his turbo focus for track events
