Default SynchroRev & layshaft

Just stumbled upon this forum as I was looking for some info on my new 370z. There's a lot of great info I've read so far.

I had a question about the SynchroRev feature on my Z. Ever since I learned to drive a manual, I've been double-clutching. I was told this was beneficial (but optional with modern trannies) for two reasons, 1) rev-matching for smoother clutch engagement but more importantly 2) Speeding up the layshaft for reduced wear on the synchros when aggressively down-shifting.

I had an older Nissan and they were known for using cheapie brass synchros that wore out quickly.

Does the SynchroRev feature of the Z also speed up the layshaft on downshifts?
