1) Turn TC and ST off (hold traction control for 6 seconds)
2) Be in a safe area with no traffic or pedestrians
3) Rev to 4000rpm
4) Release the clutch quickly (do not dump, it will cause premature wear on the clutch).
5) Enjoy replacing your tires more often!

Please note that doing this ANYWHERE in public and a cop spots you they can really drop the hammer. Could be a reckless driving ticket, so just play it safe.

Yes. 4 banger Hondas can spin tires if you rev them high enough before you dump the clutch. I did a massive burnout in a '96 ES300 once. You don't even need to turn Stability Control off. Just Traction Control. Unless you're trying to do donuts.

One click = Traction Control off

Two clicks = Competition mode (TC OFF, Stabilitrak reduced but still in effect to save your ass. Basically it allows some slip in a corner of the rear end before snapping you straight again.)

Hold for 6 seconds = TC and ST off (very very very very few people are good enough to handle the car in this mode. This should never be done on the street)

What's the difference between dumping the clutch, and releasing it quickly

Dumping = just taking your foot off the clutch.
Releasing = letting it out fast, but not removing your foot from the pedal.

So one is a snap the other is gradual.
