- Turn off VSC
- Set ECT to PWR mode.
- Power brake up to 2000 rpm
- Floor the accelerator (WOT - Wide Open Throttle) and release the brake at the same time

This should do it.

Default Real way to spin em.

Turn your wheel all the way to the right or left. Turn your vsc off. Stomp on the gas for a while. That will give you the maximum wheel spin, just don't hit anything with your car.

I don't have a GS yet but in my Supra 93, depending on how bad I want to smoke the tires or peel off, I would either just floor it or like ChuH says, powerbrake but I did it until 5000 rpm and made sure tranny was in first gear. Lots of smoke as you let go of the brakes and slide front left to right as the car launches forward. After bouncing off of the reve limiter a couple times, shift into second.

I'd put a little water on the floor.
