Drifting issue

Hey guys i have a 2002 is 300 with Auto. It used to be my wifes car and now i decided to take it away and drive it myself. Problem is i tried to get it a little sideways with the traction control off and the wheels spin but the brakes still engage to resist a skid. A friend of mine told me you have to do a code or something to turn it off. Could you guys let me know so i can have a little fun. Thanks

i think if you try to disengage it right before trying to break traction, the traction control will still act up until it regains traction. try turning it off long before?

I thought I was told that VSC cannot be turned off on IS300's. If holding the trac button down for a few seconds doesn't work... then what they said was right.

You'll have to pull a fuse to get rid of VSC... but that's gonna disable your ABS as well.

I have the same problem - I am a little crazy myself and I'd like to slide a little bit - but it doesnt seem to work quite right even in 2nd with the T/C off.
