Sell your IS250.

Buy 240sx.

Continue with your current driving habits.

Basically, hold on the brake pedal and rev it past 4K RPM. Then let go the brakes and floor it.

But what others said... get a IS350
I tried this. no luck, and traction control is off... hmm.

I got the 250 soooo cheap with 80 k miles on it, i couldnt pass it up, I will have a 350 in a few years hopefully.

Yeah, pedal dance and brake tourque. You don't want to put it in neutral and slam it into drive. That's just a good way to decrease the life of your transmission. Good luck with the 350 search.
