How to completely turn off stability control

Hey everyone, I'm trying to figure out how to completely turn off stability control. I've recently had a chance to toss around my G37S at the autoX, however any time it would get a little "too sideways", the stability control would step in and kill the power, even though it was turned off. I've heard from many sources that you can't fully turn off stability control without cutting some wires at the YAW sensor and defeating the stability control permanently. I think there has to be another way. Can this be done through tune? Is it possible to keep stability control functional with it on, and fully off with a press of a button?

From what I understand, if you hold the button in (for the asc off) the light comes on... keep the button held down till it turns off (the light). its supposed to be off..
I have not fully tried it, but i have made a couple of circles after doing that.

If im wrong, im sure someone will chime in.

I've tried that already, just to eliminate the obvious. All I got in return is stability control being in on position without a way to disable it at all. I had turn the car off and on to regain the control of the stability button.

You'd have to install a switch that bypasses the yaw sensor under the console. The plus is that it also prevents ice mode in the abs. So you're fully off with the sensor bypassed.
