stronger brakes with current master cylinder?
The brakes on my 86 22re 4R are really weak compared to what was on my '92 22re pickup. I know some of that is weight, but the difference is huge.
I'm running 16" alloys off of a 3rd gen, so I have room for more brake... is there a bigger rotor caliper combo (2nd gen V6? Supra? T100?) with a similar piston size to what I have? I don't want to replace the master cylinder (the one in there is brand new) and I also don't want to completely screw up the front/rear balance.
Or is there a better way... maybe booster upgrade?

Just a thought, but have you checked to make sure the rears are working? When I first got mine, the rear LSPV was siezed up and wasn't allowing the operation of the rear brakes. Might be something to check.
