Would be worth getting the fluid changed and get a set of good quality pads in there and once the system is well minded it should work very well, mine is a lwb with no back seats and no abs but even with the load sensing valve adjusted it's a bit giddy in the back when you stick it to the road, in fairness I would prefer if it had abs.
The problem isn't the actual break system....You can upgrade the hoses, fluids, pads and disc and they will help to a certain degree, but not there full potential. The pads don't get a chance to work hard because the ABS kicks in too early, don't get me wrong, they do there job, just not as effective as they could be. If you remove the ABS fuse and break hard you will stop so much quicker and if you're not so heavy footed with the break pedal you can do it without locking the wheels as well. The improvement will have you thinking hard whether you want to keep them or not. Just goes down to driving style at the end of the day, some need it, some don't.
