I'm wondering something, I've heard to successfully NLS the throttle has to be 93% or higher and going at least 31 MPH. I'm pretty sure I also read on here that the RPM's need to be above 5000, is this true?

The exact parameters for NLS was noted somewhere in a similar thread. I would say try it out with a shift closer to the 6,000 RPM mark. You will know you did it correctly when you hear your exhaust fart during the shift.

Lol couldnt describe it better myself, that sound is so nastysounding when no lift shifting (and not in a good way).

The important thing about NLS is your throttle has to be WOT and held there during the shift. I believe you have to be at least 5500 rpm and above and at WOT. If for instance you pull this NLS or power shift at 5500RPM, the engine stays at that rpm during the split second it takes to complete the power shift, as soon as the clutch is released , the NLS technology lets the engine drop to the RPM what ever gear you upshifted to and your already at wot.

I have tried this many time and it never worked on my car so I gave up.
I am positive the gas pedal was ALL THE FREAKING WAY to the floor where I literally put my entire feet on the gas pedal. Every time I pressed the clutch to make my shift (at 6,000 RPM) the RPM jumps all the way to redline, instead of holding the RPM. I tried in TOUR mode, TRACK mode, SPORT mode, tried with traction control off, tried with competitive mode on. NOTHING! I would like to ask for those who have successfully NLS, do a video shifting slowly to see how the RPM stays when you press the clutch. Because I am starting to believe there is no NLS in these SS. |

I would appreciate if someone could ask the engineers directly at Camaro Fest and report back.

Sorry I don't have a video. But I can confirm we do indeed have nls. The first time I tried it I was really nervous and it scared the crap out of me when I did it. But if you have your foot to the floor and carry the rpms all the way thru, then with your foot still pegged on the gas slam the clutch in make your shift and it will hold the rpm where ever you shifted from. The engine makes a really funny sound when you do it. Kind of like a rev limiter but not quite. It kind of sounds like a 2 step system.

Entire feet on the gas pedal, tried in TOUR, SPORT, TRACK mode, traction off, competitive on, everything but never work for at least one time. 17 1SS, I gave up worried about ****ing my transmission. |

Edit: Just found this video (not mine). Watch at HALF speed (under the settings cog, bottom right) at 0:10 and at 0:13. Sounds like this is the farting NLS sound and it doesn't look like the RPMs jump up.

Here's the problem - so many question whether it has it or not, many say and swear (and I believe they believe it) it has it, yet still so many that try it and it doesn't work, including me.
If such a feature exists, why doesn't GM tell us about it? Why aren't the specific parameters that have to be met for it to work outlined in the owner's manual? Is it like the secret that only a few get the privilege to understand? would love GM to chime in.

Guys, the car has it. The second one was done using PDR, so you can see the RPM and gas pedal well. I think I have some PDR videos with NLS on them, I'll have to pull my memory card.
