Not as much as you are hoping. But it looks better.

well i'll put it this way... i've had 3 honda crx's through the years and one set came with disc front/drums rear and one came with disc on both... now the disc on both were supposed to be better...i did a little testing near a private airport nearby with both cars and they were very close(the one with disc in front/rear was a little better)... then i switched out the proportioning valve in the one with drums in the back with that from an integra(no other brake mods) and the one with drums in the back was ALOT better than the one with dual disc.... we may be able to do something like that with the yaris
