Synchro didn't like a 9k change from 2nd into 6th, so I stopped doing it, about 3 years ago 
Nasty mechanical graunching noises should be avoided, might just be my box. Seems to be lasting well otherwise!
Oh, and it doesn't like selecting 6th on a real cold day until it's warmed up a little. Not as bad as older Ferraris when you can't select 2nd for the first 20 miles

On my normal commute, there are some nice sections of road where I can give it some
However, having VTEC'd from 1st to 4th, I find that I'm seriously run(ning) out of speed limit.

i regulary 'block' change wheather it's in my s or in work mode where i have 24 gears to choose from, block changing is a necesity (unless you like hard work)
quite often in the s i don't even use the clutch.
