I was reading an article on j-turns on wikipedia. It was interesting; however, it really doesn't have much details. I'm hoping someone could tell me exactly what you have to do in order to pull off a j-turn. Thank you in advance.

It's the 180 J-turn that I'm asking about. I haven't heard of the E-Brake J-turn until now. How different are they besides the part where you have to pull the E-Brake?

180, or E-brake turn?
Get going about 25 mph, push the clutch in, pull the park brake handle, crank the wheel, put car in first gear, release the hand brake, let the clutch out, and floor the gas.

Mr Know it all,
You have most of it right; however, it is better to drop the car in 1st gear with the clutch disengaged before working the E-brake. You cannot shift and E-brake at the same time unless you leave the brake on and up, but that's just too slow. You need to be on and off the E-brake quickly with the thumb button pushed in (lock the rear wheels but don't lock the E-brake ratchet).
