That has absolutely nothing to do with what the syncro-rev match is "supposed" to do in an upshift according to the OP's post

I think there is a clear correlation between the video and the fact that we know that the system is holding RPM until you shift into gear.
If he is powershifting he is taking his sweet time to do so. If you look at any other Best Motoring clips he never keeps his foot down on the gas while shifting. (race, time trial, whatever.) From my humble experience, there is very little benefit to doing so on a circuit.
On another note, for some reason the Rev-up 350z's also did this when driven agressively. So, I can't say conclusively that its the SynchroRev, maybe its a heavy flywhel or clutch delay valve. Maybe the causes are different and the effect is the same, Idk? Maybe someone with a Rev-up 350z can tell us why?
Or better yet, some of the new 370z owners need to start flogging their cars and tell us.
